Shivling Rituals

The Shivling rituals are a vital part of Hindu tradition, symbolizing the divine essence of Lord Shiva and his formless nature. Devotees perform abhishekam, pouring water, milk, and honey over the Shivling, each representing purity, nourishment, and sweetness, signifying surrender and devotion. Accompanied by mantras like “Om Namah Shivaya,” bells, and incense, these rituals create a rich spiritual atmosphere. Often observed during auspicious occasions like Maha Shivaratri, they reflect profound faith and the pursuit of inner peace, enabling devotees to dissolve the ego and connect with the divine.
