A & S Ventures Parad is known as âMercuryâ in English and it is considered to be the purest form of Shivling or Lord Shiva idol. It is said that having Parad Shivling idol is equivalent to performing Puja of 12 Jyotirlingas. Parad is regarded as the seed of Lord Shiva. Parad Shivling does not require Jalabhishek as mercury itself is liquid in nature and auto Jalabhishek happens internally all the time. Parad Bead (Siddh Gutika) is Complete with 8 Samkaras.
