Rocks rolling around in the Narmada River bed help shape these stones into natural Shiva Lingams, sacred symbols of Lord Shiva, collected for centuries by generations of the same families. It may be that some of these stones are "finished" to remove irregularities, but it's a topic avoided by the sellers of these iconic stones who line the road leading to the great temple of Shiva at Omkareshwar, in Madhya Pradesh. Beautiful natural markings reveal the personalities of the individual lingams.
