I noticed in y'days episode that the beautiful Shivji murti in the Ranavat haveli Mandir has now changed to a Shiv ling...is there any significance of this in the Shiv Parvati story? Does this change mean anything?

Just read somewhere that ----Shiv Ling in union is a symbol- celebrating the fact that humankind has two sexes, each with its unique attributes and qualities, and when they come together, they produce a synergy, they create MORE life, they become more than the sum of their individual parts.

Does this represent the union of Rudra and Paro? Now that they are slowly coming closer and together they become more than the sum total of their individual parts...

I don't know much about Shiv/Parvati thingy but I remember reading somewhere that Shivji's first wife Sati immolates herself & then Shivji gets very angry, does some penance & sati is reborn as Parvati & they get reunited. According to the spoilers, Paro will loose herself in the chaos that takes place due to the fire at the mosque. I see ' sort of ' a symbolism here with shiv Parvati angle. So maybe , like Shivji ,Rudra will go BESERK & bring Paro back. Does anyone have any knowledge about this mythological event ?
