Lingam Pooja
Lingam puja demands purity in every sphere, starting from holy bathing to washing the lingam.

To begin with, one must daily do abhishekas (Divine Bathing) with fresh milk, fresh curd, fragrant herbal powders & water, reciting the following mantra-


Lingam PoojaTHATH PURUSHAAYA VITHMAHAE
MAHADEVAYA DHEEMAHI
THANNO RUDRA PRACHODHAYAATH

One needs to light incense and offer dhoop. After bathing the linga, it should be wiped gently with a specified cloth. It is advised to apply some sandal powder & vermilion, dampened with a little water to bring it to a paste form. Rudram recitation pleases Lord Shiva, which is either chanted or played during the abhisheka (Divine Bathing). Sanskrit mantras have been created in such a way that they are shelled with godly vibrations and it definitely mends the environment & atmosphere. The above-mentioned process is the Puja, and if performed with an untainted heart & perception & honest aspiration, the Lord will undoubtedly acknowledge it.
