That is why swords and any other weapons are used in puja ceremony. The "phallic energy" - this is in short form for Europeans, so as not to explain for a long time. By the way, I'm going to explain this in detail soon. In Russian, of course.

In your future paper you might want to discuss sword positions on the altar: edge down on the altar might indeed signify phallic energy. But according to what is shown on the pic you posted ( the sides of the tulwar blade lying flat on the altar) male Hindu believers had Peyronie’s disease .

Man, it was just a joke:-)
We all need to lighten up occasionally. Serious discussions get too heavy and oppressive:-)
You yourself use jokes and I appreciate them.
Peace?

I read the previous post and wonder.
How strange... Gentlemen moderators, for my jokes you reprimand me and edit my posts. I wonder if it's because my English is so bad and my jokes are too straightforward.
