Shivling kaise banaen: The month of Sawan is considered to be the most sacred and auspicious time for devotion to Lord Shiva. Throughout the month, devotees try to please Bholenath through fast, consecration and worship. During this time, worship of Shivling is very important, because Lord Shiva is worshiped in the form of Linga.
It is not possible for everyone to go to the temple and worship daily. In such a situation, by installing Shivling at home, Shiva is blessed by doing Jalabhishek, milk, bilvapatra etc. daily. Buying a Shivling from the market can be an option, but the Shivling made with its own hands is considered more satvic and virtuous, especially in a holy month like Sawan. It also brings positive energy to the house.
