Sometimes called Mahadeva or the Great God, he is the Destroyer and Transformer and can take on many forms. In Hindu temples, an embodiment of Shiva is often placed prominently at the altar in a form or avatar known as lingam. It is customary to make offerings or puja to the avatar in order to worship the deity. Hindus often worship Shiva outside of the temple as well by placing statues of the lingam avatar in their homes or places of business.
