It houses the naturally formed ice Lingam, the symbol of creation, which waxes and wanes with the moon. It is here that shiva lives with His consort Parvati. in the shape of two pigeons which are seen flying out of this sacred cave. Sri Amarnatha Cave, by Prof. Hassnain, Prof. Miura and the Mystic Vijay Pandita, is an original research work, based on the ancient Sanskrit Mahatmya, Amareshvara, a work of antiquity. Here is revealed the secret of salvation, as told by Shiva to Parvati.
