I'll soon be applying for Schengen Visa. I do have funds in the bank to prove the means of subsistence. Do I have to park funds during the time embassy decides whether to grant or refuse the visa?

No. The embassy is looking for evidence that you have a steady income and can afford to travel, not that you have a lump of cash without a clear origin.

"Funds parking", as used in this site, is a bad thing that will likely lead to getting your visa denied: What is 'funds parking' in the context of UK visa applications?
