Lord Shiva worships the shivalinga
This depiction is a favourite shaivic imagery. it is extremely esoteric and full of spiritual meaning.
Why does Shivji sit behind his own shivalinga?
because,in the most simple of words, He's committed to His own creation.
If you compare this to a modern day analogy, where during an election, the contender for head of state also goes to caste his vote, and ,of course, he's up early, leading by example..he believes in His own manifesto, and stands by His principles.
so too, shivji respects what his own shaivism stands for, He is the first adherent..He is His own first votary .He leads by example and from the front. Jai Shiv Shanker, Jai Bholenath!
