Kalastri Linga

Kalastri Linga

in Hindu mythology, is one of the commonest representations of Siva. A pious Indian had noticed that the right eye of the god wept. Immediately he took out his right eye and put it into the idol. Soon after the left eye began to run, and the friend of the god sacrificed his left eye, and, as he was blind, he made use of his foot to find the spot where this eye was to be put in.
