From Nyay Shastra(V. Imp) :- A source that can help us to know exactly about a matter or event. So formless Lingam represents the formless power of this universe that is the origin of all the matter and the events of this universe.
Simple meaning :- Symbol by that help us to know to recognize any event or matter as stated above.
Though it is the source of creation, the male sex organ was also given this name as a source of reproduction but it is not the main meaning it is a derived meaning.
Meanings of Yoni are body and origin. There are 84 lacs Yonis(bodies) in which soul(Lingam) travels. It is also called source becasue all creation came from. When this Lingam(atman) come out of this circle of Yonis, It simply looks like Shiva Lingam. Just a symbol of tearing the circle of rebirth.
This is what Yoni Lingam represents.
Yoni is also called vagina because the main meaning of Yoni is origin as life originates from vagina. So Penis and Virgina are not the main meaning of Lingam and Yoni. They are symbolically called so.
"Yoni is also called Bhaga. That means all the luxuries and pleasure of this universe and Shiva Lingam symbolizes how Atman tear them apart to meet it real source Parabrhaman"
In some sex-oriented lliterature of Sanskrit. Vagina is the all luxury and pleasurous thing for lusty people. So, it was called Bhaga.
So we worship siva as lingam...it mean he only responsible for life....Still y we call siva as Destroyer or Transformer among the Trimurti...He is the god of creaton right
