Rameswaram salt (Uppu) Lingam

In Rameswaram jyotirlinga temple, there is an old lingam which is made of salt behind the main Lingam of the temple. Even after many years, the salt Lingam has not yet dissolved.

Once upon a time, many people argued that main Lingam of the temple was not made of sand and also said that if Lingam was made of sand it would have been dissolved while anointing the Lord.

During that time, a true devotee of Devi Parvati named Bhaskararaayar made a Lingam out of salt and anointed it. But the Lingam did not dissolve. He said that if the Lingam made by him who worship Devi Parvati did not dissolve, then it is of no wonder that the Lingam made by the wife of Lord Vishnu is not dissolved yet. The salt Lingam made by him is present till now.
