Yoni & Geti

Yoni (IAST: yoni; Sanskrit:"vulva") is a stylised representation of the goddess Shakti in Hinduism. Within Shaivism, the sect dedicated to the god Shiva, the Shakti symbolises his consort. The union of the yoni and lingam represents the eternal process of creation and regeneration and all existence. In art and sculpture, this is represented by a cylinder resting within a spouted dish.
