Guest guest Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 Narmada Shivaling worship Narmada shivaling is for every common man. Shiva lingas are like fire, Lord Shiva keeps doing penance - jwaalaagni - the fire of penance blazing all over him & from him - so, we always keep him cool - he is also called Abhisheka Priya - bathing divine elements is called Abhisheka in sanskrit. The more you bathe him, the more happy he is. Lingam Pooja is done daily with abhishekas (Divine Bathing) with fresh milk, Fresh Curd, aromatic herbal powders & water chanting the following mantra :THATH PURUSHAAYA VITHMAHAEMAHADEVAYA DHEEMAHITHANNO RUDRA PRACHODHAYAATHLight incence and offer dhoop. After bathing the linga, wipe them gently with a designated cloth - apply some sandal powder moistened with little water to bring it to a paste form & vermillon. Rudram chanting pleases Lord Shiva which is either recited or played during the abhisheka (Divine Bathing). The above process is the Puja and if done with a pure heart & consciousness & true aspiration, the Lord will certainly accept it./showarticles.php?artid=129 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
