Cult image

The current text states that Murthi is a Cult image. The Cult image states that a cult image is made by man. This is incorrect, for Murthi need not be sculpted or formed by man. For example, Dwaraka Sila , Salagrama Sila , Govardhana Sila are not formed by man, nor is Amarnath Sivalingam , all of which are worshipped. I think the original text of "deities or images" is superior. --BostonMA 22:55, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
