(Hinduism) Confused with Śhaṅkar. Name of the third god of the Hindū triad, the Deity in the character of producer or destroyer (Śhiv's most distinctive function is to preside over the dissolution of the world at the end of each aeon in order that it may be created anew), or Time personified.
(Hinduism) The phallic or pillar emblem of Śhiv.
(Bābā) The name of the Supreme Being The Auspicious, the Good, the Well-being, etc. who does his work of Creation, Sustainment and Destruction of the World through the trimūrti Brahmā, Viṣhṇu and Śhaṅkar three subtle deities created by God in the subtle world.

(Bābā) The Point. He is the Supreme Soul and therefore has the shape of a point like any soul. As He is incorporeal, it was represented with the shape of a pillar or, more anciently, an egg.

Ashwamedh yagya (where a horse is sacrificed) is mentioned in ancient scriptures A ritual described there is performed by a king (raja) who strives for becoming a great king, or an emperor (maharaja) Before the yagya is conducted, a horse is set loose to roam around wherever it chooses for a few months or a year If the inhabitants of the lands that the horse crosses let it cross their territory without any obstruction, it means they accept the raja’s rule over them In this way the raja becomes a chakravarti raja (literally - the ruler of the entire globe).
In Baba’s murlis the word “yagya” often stands for this Godly University, or this system of giving the knowledge and providing God’s sustenance, created by Baba at the Confluence age Every Baba’s service place is the yagya. Madhuban is often called Mahayagya (the Great Yagya).
