This can be done by regularly reciting his mantras, such as &#8220;Om Namah Shivaya&#8221;. Chanting the name of Shiva &#8220;Namah Shivaya&#8221; is a Panchakshari mantra, which finds mention in Rudradhyaye, which is a subdivision of Yajurved. When it is prefixed with the sacred syllable Om (Parma), it becomes Om Namah Shivaya, the six-letter Shadakshari mantra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The spiritual meaning of this mantra is:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Na: The foremost deity of all the regions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ma: the bestower of supreme spiritual knowledge and destroyer of the greatest sins.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shi: Benevolent, serene and responsible for the initiation by Lord Shiva.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Va: the representative of a bull as the vehicle and the Vasuki and Vamangi energies.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ya: The auspicious abode of supreme bliss and Lord Shiva.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"440\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/rudralife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-2-min-9.jpg\" alt=\"Om\" class=\"wp-image-12856 lazyload\" title=\"Om\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/rudralife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-2-min-9.jpg 768w, https:\/\/rudralife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-2-min-9-300x172.jpg 300w, https:\/\/rudralife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-2-min-9-600x344.jpg 600w, https:\/\/rudralife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-2-min-9-20x11.jpg 20w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Chanting Mantra<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Usage of Om with the Panchakshari mantra is helpful in gaining energy to blend Sagun with Nirgun (manifest with unmanifest).

We, however, do recommend women to prefix Om and recite it with full concentration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Shiva_Linga_Puja\"><\/span><strong>Shiva Linga Puja<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Another way to please Lord Shiva is through performing specific rituals and practices. One such practice is the &#8220;Shiva Linga Puja,&#8221; which is the worship of Lord Shiva in the form of a Linga, which is a representation of his energy and power.

The Sanskrit word Abhishek means sprinkling. This is a ritual in which the idols are given a sacred bath not only with water but also with honey, milk, turmeric etc. The idols are used to store cosmic energy and dissipate them. We know that energy transfer occurs when a potential difference exists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"440\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/rudralife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-5-min-7.jpg\" alt=\"Abhishek\" class=\"wp-image-12853 lazyload\" title=\"Abhishek\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/rudralife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-5-min-7.jpg 768w, https:\/\/rudralife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-5-min-7-300x172.jpg 300w, https:\/\/rudralife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-5-min-7-600x344.jpg 600w, https:\/\/rudralife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-5-min-7-20x11.jpg 20w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Abhishek<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In this case, the idols are the high-potential dissipaters and we (humans) are the low-potential absorbers. Water, being an electrolyte, transmits energy faster than air. Pouring water upon an energized deity releases powerful vibrations which we can receive more easily than from the air.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Similarly, different substances have the ability to release different vibrations when they come in contact with an energized object or deity. Many of these substances are edible, and each has a unique quality that heals or energizes a specific body part. The spent liquid is passed on to the devotees for them to drink or to apply on their heads and this is known as Teertham.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Rudrabhishek\"><\/span><strong>Rudrabhishek<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ritual bathing of Shivling, also known as Rudrabhishek, is the best way to please Mahadev. It pleases Lord Shiva because Shiva is an innately pleasing and quick giver of fruits and he is the giver of love, marriage, happiness, prosperity, power and knowledge. Rudrabhishek Yagya is the most important, biggest and popular religious-spiritual festival to please Lord Shiva, participating in this Abhishek gives an easy way to get rid of all the troubles of life. The materials used in the Abhishek have their own importance. Whatever Rudrabhishek is done with, that object is going to affect some area of \u200b\u200blife with great depth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"440\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/rudralife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-4-min-8.jpg\" alt=\"Rudrabhishek\" class=\"wp-image-12854 lazyload\" title=\"Rudrabhishek\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/rudralife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-4-min-8.jpg 768w, https:\/\/rudralife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-4-min-8-300x172.jpg 300w, https:\/\/rudralife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-4-min-8-600x344.jpg 600w, https:\/\/rudralife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-4-min-8-20x11.jpg 20w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Rudrabhishek<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Also read-:<\/strong> <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/rudralife.com\/blog\/top-10-lord-shiva-temples-in-india-that-every-devotee-must-visit-once\/\" title=\"\">Top 10 Lord Shiva Temples in India that every devotee must visit once<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Parikrama\"><\/span><strong>Parikrama<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Circumambulations (linga parikrama) are being offered to Lord Shiva. The path is like a half-moon. The channel, which runs towards the Moon from the base of the linga till the boundary of the temple, is called the som sutra. When circumambulating, one should begin on the left-hand side and continue till the channel of the Yoni from where the water is offered during the ritualistic bathing (Abhishek) flows. Without crossing it, one should complete a circumambulation by moving in the reverse direction up to the other side of the channel. This applies only if the Shivalinga is installed or created by men; it does not apply to a swayambhu linga (like jyotirlingas) or the Chal lingas kept in the house. The flow of the shalunka (yoni) is not crossed over as it is the flow of energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"440\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/rudralife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-6-min-6.jpg\" alt=\"Parikrama\" class=\"wp-image-12852 lazyload\" title=\"Parikrama\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/rudralife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-6-min-6.jpg 768w, https:\/\/rudralife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-6-min-6-300x172.jpg 300w, https:\/\/rudralife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-6-min-6-600x344.jpg 600w, https:\/\/rudralife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-6-min-6-20x11.jpg 20w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Parikrama<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Rudraksha_%E2%80%93_The_blessing_of_Lord_Shiva_for_all_of_mankind\"><\/span><strong>Rudraksha &#8211; The blessing of Lord Shiva for all of mankind<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Wearing Rudraksha is also considered very auspicious to please Lord Shiva and get his blessings.
