TIA correspondence desk received from India a confirmation of our comments about the Tabernacle and a church built in Nasik, India, by Fr. Peter Julia, SJ.
Our reader sent us a self-explanatory picture and caption from the Indian English written newspaper The Herald, published on February 16, 2007.
We reproduce it on the first row, below.
To make the symbol clearer, we post pictures of the Shiva Linga
in other Hindu temples, second row below.
