3. Made of metals – gold, silver, copper, bronze, iron, etc.
4. Made from wood ,tree, extract, bel etc.
5. Soil – made from red, black, white soil and sand.
6. Made from curd, ghee, snow etc.

The form ofAmarnathShivlingais that of snow and hence they can be called transient-linga.
His appearance is very short-sighted. Therefore, the philosophy ofBaba Amareshwaris rare. The realization and philosophy of other types of Shivalingas such as styles, metals, gemstones and terracotta etc. are easy. But transient Shivling is about to give extremely rare and paramount fruits. According to Lingpuran, transientAmarnath Shivlingais about to provide salvation.

Importance of worship Baba Barfani:

The Lingamhapurana instructs that “a person who lawfully establishes white Shivling like milk, including Skanda and Uma. He becomes Rudra in the form of a human. Visiting and touching that auspicious white shivlinga attains salvation. It is not possible to say its virtue even in the 100 yugas.

Shivling is considered to be very sacred in Sanatan Dharma traditions. The purpose of the Amarnath Yatra is to have a glimpse of that sacred white Himalinga. The philosophy of which leads to the attainment of nectar, salvation. The philosophy of Amarnath is to provide salvation directly.

Amarnath Yatra importance:

There is no god in the world like Shiva. He is the one who grants salvation to all earthly creatures. There is no mercy greater than Shivaji in providing welfare and happiness, and no one is more powerful than him in battle.

Therefore, this statement is correct that Baba Amarnath Rupi, Himalinga is the most holy. And the worship of Shivalinga is the highest virtue, and its importance is also undesirable.
