Dear spbritman ji,

You may visit this site and see what you want... the home page for this site is

http://www.hindunet.org; I hope you get your answer on the link below. There are

32 different type of Lingams...so in the regular puja certain syllable change...

The link below is good enough I guess..

 

http://www.archaka.com/puja/deities/shiva/shivaratripuja2.htm in this site you

will find books and CDs on how to perform the puja on a step to step basis.

 

Here is a story that traces the origin of the festival to the fact that Lord

Shiva saved the entire human race and the universe from destruction by

swallowing poison. It is believed that the Gods and the demons were churning the

Ocean (Sagarmanthan) to obtain amrit (nectar) to stay immortal. In the process

they came across many unusual substances, including the deadly poison. As soon

as they touched the poison, it exploded into poisonous fumes that threatened to

destroy the entire universe. When the destruction of the universe seemed

inevitable, the Gods ran for assistance to Brahma and Vishnu, but neither was

able to help. At last they ran to Lord Shiva, who swallowed the poison without

spilling a single drop. That also explains why Lord Shiva's throat is blue in

colour for which he is also called Neel Kanth (the one who has a blue throat) or

Vishaapaharana Murthy.

Om Namaha Shivaya!
