Pradosha Vratham is one of the most important fasts for Lord Shiva. Especially the Pradosha on Saturday is very noble. 🎇 The main feature of Pradosha worship is the removal of major doshas. No matter how many doshas there are, by worshiping Lord Shiva on Pradosha Day, the doshas will be removed. 🙏

🕉️ Saturday is the day Lord Shiva took eternal care to save the gods. Hence, Pradosha on Saturday is given special status as Shani Mahapradosha. 🌿

Shani Pradosha Worship:

🕔 Pradosha Time 4:30 PM to 6:00 PM, sit in Shiva Temple for a while and chant “Om Namasivaya” 🕉️ mantra.

🌾 Buy a bundle of arugula for Nandidev and 🍃 Vilva leaf for Lord Shiva.

🪔 It is preferable to buy the necessary items for Abhishekam.

🪔 If there is a habit of lighting a lamp in a temple, follow it. Otherwise pour ghee in Akantha Deepam or buy ghee and donate it to the temple.

Solve debt problems..

For unsolved debt problems, one should offer white Pongal with pepper to Lord Shiva today 🍚.

Later, giving alms to those who pray outside that white Pongal temple will bring merit. 🙌

Specialties of Shani Pradosha:

🙏 If you do temple worship during Shani Pradosha, you will get the benefit of five years of temple worship. 🕉️

🌿 At the time of Pradosha, if you worship Rishabha Deva with arugambul garland, red rice and ghee lamp 🪔, you will get happiness. 🌾

📿 Today we should fast all day, take only water as food and go to Shiva temple in the evening during Pradosha. 🚶 ♂️

🕉️ After anointing Lord Shiva with milk, honey, curd, sandalwood, panneer, thirune and panchamirta 🍃 with vilvam, arali, lotus and jasmine flowers, Deeparathana will be held.

🚩 Abhishekam will also be performed for his vehicle Nandidev. Oil, milk, curd, sandalwood, water etc. can be given to him for abhishek. It is customary to worship with a bow after plucking the flowers. 🌿

🪔 After Nandi Devara's Deeparathana, the deeparathana of the Linga, the source, is seen between the two horns of Nandi, and our sins will be removed and good will come. 🙏

🕉️ Recite the five syllable mantra Namashivaya and get the grace of Shiva perfectly..!! 🌺

Shiva literally translates to that which is not. The entire galaxy is just a tiny ant in the mighty universe. The rest of it is vast emptiness that is known as Shiva. Shiva is ‘shakti’ or power, Shiva is the destroyer, the most powerful god of the Hindu pantheon and one of the godheads in the Hindu Trinity. Known by many names – Mahadeva, Mahayogi, Pashupati, Nataraja, Bhairava, Vishwanath, Bhava, Bhole Nath – Lord Shiva is perhaps the most complex of Hindu deities. Hindus recognize this by putting his shrine in the temple separate from those of other deities. Mantras and Slokas of Lord Shiva are extremely powerful and are believed to bring good health.
