On the day of Maha Sivaratri, Lord Siva takes the Linga form for the benefit

of the Seekers. Bhajans, Poojas and Abhishekams are performed on this whole

day and night. Specially the 'Linga-form' of Siva is worshiped by doing the

Abhishekam. Even by pouring a drop of water on the SivaLingam one will be

relieved of all the difficulties, sorrows and will be blessed with joy and

happiness everafter.

 

Abhishekam is given lot of importance in performing pooja to Lord Siva. With

chanting of Veda Mantras like Namakam and Chamakam, Rudrabhishekam is

performed to the Sivalinga in all the temples of Siva. This is done not only

with water but also Panchamruthas (Milk, Ghee, Curd, Honey, Coconut Water) to

please Lord Siva. As Siva is fond of Bilva Leaves puja is also performed with

these leaves. Even if you do Abhishekam with pure water Bhola Shankar

(another name of Lord Siva) will be pleased.

 

The following link has the Samkalpam (intention), and the procedure to do the

puja.

Devotees will get the beneficial effect even by hearing namakam, chamakam 

and doing Abhishekam. One who performs Abhishekam on this Maha Sivaratri day

is sure to reach the abode of Lord Siva after one's death. All their

spiritual desires will be immediately fulfilled. Blessings of the Sadguru

will be with them always.

 

 

 

Praying for the well being of all the Datta Families.

 

 

 

Always in Sadguru Seva,
