Lord Shiva is considered the most divine among Hindu gods. Hence he is given the name “maha dev,” i.e., the greatest god.
If you just wish to avail yourself of his blessings fast, simply chant ‘Om Namah Shivaya” 101 times daily. You will see a quick turnaround in your problems.
If you wish to pray sincerely, then read further.
He is said to have no birth and also does not need other divine support for his excellence.
Shiva is the one who gives blessings to the wishes of the devotees faster than any other god.
It is believed that Lord Shiva is the father of the whole universe. While his wife “Mata Parvathi” is considered the mother of the whole universe. So they are considered universal parents.
His son Lord Ganesha is considered to be the one eligible for the first worship. So devotees, during any form of Hindu puja or rituals, offer their prayer to Lord Ganesha.
Lord Shiva is also addressed by many other names like
Trinethra | Three-eyed one |
Neelakanta | Blue-colored neck (retained poison in his neck) |
Jatadhara | One with long hair |
Gangadhara | Holds the Ganges on his head. |
How to pray to Lord Shiva
- Lord Shiva is the embodiment of energy, longevity, and selflessness. So, we should worship him with that in mind.
- He is considered as the god residing in burial grounds indicating his disregard for worldly pleasures.
- Unlike other gods, he needs no ornaments or beautiful cloth for decoration.
- Just plain white ash (vibhuti) as offering is sufficient to pray effectively.
- To get the desires or wishes blessed, one needs to pray with a composed mind and pleasant heart.
1. Visit his temple every Monday with a clean mind and body to pray. It is auspicious to visit the temple in the evening after 4:00 PM.
2. Try to wear a suitable rudraksha bead to gain instant bliss of shiva.
Wearing a rudraksha bead is like carrying shiva with you everywhere.
It is believed to prolong your life span (avoids untimely death), overcome disease, give you peace of mind, and also succeed.
3. Recite the Maha Mrutunjay’s mantra as many times as possible. This is the spell to overcome fatal diseases and untimely death.
“Om Tryambakam yajamahe sugandhim pushhtivardhanam
Urvarukamiva bandhanan mrityor mukshiya maamritath.”
4. Apply a tilak of vibudhi or bhasm on the forehead during the temple visit. This retains the energy of the chakra in the forehead.
5. Keep chanting lord as “Om Namah Shivaya” continuously in your route to the temple and back.
6. Perform worship as abhisheka to shiva linga by bhasma, water
- If available Offer Aegle marmelos leaves (bilwa leaves) as they are considered the favorite of Lord Shiva. Put them on shiv linga.
7. Always worship Lord Ganesha before praying to Lord Shiva. He is supposed to remove any obstacles in the course of prayer and receive blessings thereon.
8. It will be a good sign to light a deep or Jyoti as it is a prayer to lord shakti, the other form of goddess Parvathi, the wife of Lord Shiva.
9. If possible, offer flowers of Calotropis gigantea (Swallow wart, Jilledu plant, Madar Tree, Gigantic milkweed, Mudar, Aak) for Shiva puja.
Both bilwa and jilledu are ones that can be found in nearby farms or forests. Getting them from a natural source is more auspicious than buying from a shop.
10. If possible, visit any one of the jyotirlingas (see bottom link).
11. If the prayer is on Monday, carry some prasad to the temple. If possible, distribute it to the people there.
Who should worship Lord Shiva?
1. People with chronic diseases struggle to get rid of the suffering and lead a normal life. Lord Shiva’s blessing helps overcome the illness and suffering and prevents even untimely death.
2. Those desirous of getting a baby by proper carriage without abortions should pray shiva.
3. Those willing to achieve spiritual progress and enlightenment.
4. Those who wish to achieve high goals in life can worship Sada Shiva.
5. Shiva’s god story is quite interesting in that he was in love and married. So he might even bless lovers.
6. Those who have a weak or troublesome moon in their Vedic astrology chart.
In general, pundits advise them to wear a pearl gemstone.
But praying to God Shiva and goddess Parvathi will be more beneficial. Even they may not require to wear the pearl gemstone.
How to worship at home
1. Do a regular prayer to Shiva lingam at home during the early morning and evenings every day.
2. Wash the shiv linga and apply vibhuti or bhasm.
3. Light a deep and incense stick.
4. Recite “Om Namah Shiva” a few times.
5. On Mondays especially, offer milk or any sweet made with milk to the lord.
How to worship lord shiva in evening
- Praying to lord Shiva in the evening is considered divine as it is the time for appearance of moon.
- One can see better results when prayed in the evening especially if they have influence of moon in their birth chart. Because if one prays in the evening, it tends to strengthen moon in the persons chart.
- It is good to worship lord shiva after 4:00 PM and even later preferably like 6 to 7 PM etc.
- Offer either water or milk on to Shiva ling along with light and flower to god and seek blessings.
- For health and longevity recite the triambakam mantra shown above.
- For career or marriage try to pray daily until you get results.
How to worship lord shiva in the morning
- Morning before sunrise is auspicious time to pray lord shiva.
- One can awake early like at 4AM and complete prayer before 5.30 or 6:00 AM.
- Then one need to pray to sun god too for better benefits of career and success.
- As routine, one can offer pure water or milk and light a lamp.
- Chant shiva’s mantra including the one mention above.
- Doing so can help you keep good health, focus in life and have a peaceful mind.
Lord Shiva is one of the most sought-after Hindu gods, as witnessed by the number of temples all over the world.
He is also said to have incarnated as lord hanuman during Ramayan.
If you are an atheist or not a believer of Shiva or you have doubts like if god real, then go for a deal with Shiva.
Ask him for something and go for his prayer if it happens. This might help you overcome doubts about the presence of God.
The way he has become the god and his story of emergence can be found in the book Shiva mahapuran.
For more stories on Shiva, you can go through Shiva Purana.
Sir I am not doing well in my studies…it is also affecting my relationship with my family and friends and I am also being disrespected by people a lot….can you please tell me a solution through which I become cool calm and composed and also do well in my studies
Hi, for studies, you can recite this mantra 21 times daily "Om Shreem Hreem Saraswati-ya Namaha"
For peace and coolness, you can pray to lord shiva daily. If possible, wear a 5 mukhi rudraksha with proper procedure and you will see quick results.
Hello admin I am Antone and am a christian surely am very mucg interested to join your religion because i have praying our lord for so long but nothing seems to happen so i am requesting to be given directions from lord shiva since am jobless and unmaried as my age grows older.please kindly speak pure english because i do not understand hindu language thank you.
Hi Antone! you can worship shiva using a photo. If possible try to wear a ruraksha for enhanced and faster results from God.
Thanks Sir for your prompt response. Yes it could be because of Moon. Lord Shiva is known as Abhishekapriyan, one who is fond of Abhishek. In this context I want to know whether we can pour water on Shivling in the evenings in the temple? Generally Abhishek is done in the mornings only, but I am not sure…please enlighten on this aspect also.
Hi you are welcome. In temples, abhishek is done in the evenings, too, on specific occasions. Also, there is a belief that shiva ling emanates a lot of energy and needs to be cooled by constant water. Besides, when milk is poured onto shivling, the positive vibrations from it reach the hands of the devotee pouring it.
Thank you very much for all the details and information about Lord Shiva’s worship. I have one query. You have mentioned that it is auspicious to visit Shiva temple in the evening after 4 pm. Can you explain the reason for it? Thank you.
Hi, Thanks for stopping by. I believe it is because in the evening the moon is seen. The moon is shivas favorite and hence Shiva is also called someshwara. Perhaps, one could also get rid of the negative effects of the moon as per their horoscope.
i Just happened to give lord shiva a worship today, and before the ended. I already recieved lord shivas blessing
Thanks Lord Shiva
Om Namah Shivaya
beautiful I am really impressed I really love and like the great lord Shiva
Om namah shivay.
Dear Sir/Madam,

@Amrita ! Please wear a rudraksha as per your horoscope immediately. If you cannot get your horoscope details just wear a panchamukhi rudraksha. Wear it by spelling Om namaha Shivaya, You will have quick support from Lord Shiva.
vanakum namastee

Om Nama Shivaya.
I don’t know much About the Almighty. But i wish to know more about him. Studying him, exploring him. One can find peace in both life and beyond that.
I need a miracle to happen in my life. Help me Lord
Om Namah Shivaya
I Want to bless my special friend for better exam results of FYBSC (CS) .How could I pray for my special friend to lord shiv.Plz let me know as soon as possible.
I’M very tensed as result is coming soon.
HAR HAR MAHADEV !!!
Hi,
Just a curiosity are we bribing Lord Shiva here as some comments makes no sense
I want to achieve life success and financial freedom with shiva’s help .
Please guide
For me the moment i say shiva instantly i connect with him and his energy. May be since childhood i liked this God unknowingly. You will never get blessings of Lord Shiva by just expecting something in return without doing your part of the job. As the saying goes ” God help only those who help themselves”.. However he is instantly available you love him and seek his blessings everyday. How lovely it is to love Lord Shiva and feel connected everyday and ask his presence in everything you do. We keep expecting so much and expecting Lord shiva to asnwer all this is not true to lord Shiva. Shiva itself is so unconditional and non expecting. So seek your spiritual enlightenment than merely expecting material gains.
Can we pour mustard oil on Lord Shiva at Saturday
am a christian however i love lord Shiva i try to perform prayers and truly want to be a devotee of Shiva. how can i do it…
@Angom Lawin Edith! you can pray Shiva by just buying shiv ling. Even you get it made in your own place. Also, read Shiva stories on the net and books. You can find many audio songs online in Sanskrit dedicated to lord Shiva.
Hai angom

@ Do a japa for lord shiva name. If possible non-stop.
I want to get an opportunity to showcase my singing talent and get recognised by some renowned music director or composer..How to fullfill it????
That is not a reason to turn to Shiva for your personal gain. I believe if you have a pure heart and a desire to be close to Shiva you will. Asking him to bring you fame is an ego tactic.
One of my close relatives is suffering from tumor i want them to get cured so how to get blessings of Lord Shiva for longevity?

Michelle
hello everyone as we all know LORD SHIVA is the lord of lords. He is a GURU too.
Its really easy and simple to make him your guru , you just have to follow 3 simple steps each day.
1. do this prayer each day “hey shiv aap mere guru hai mai aapka shishya(student) hu app mujh pe DAYA kejiye” . DAYA means each and every blessing.
2. as I am telling you all about making shiva your GURU you should also tell this thing to everyone around you. This step is known as “CHARCHA”.
3. In this step you have to daily remember shiva and chant OM NAMAH SHIVAAY atleast 108 times.
Trust me this can change your LIFE
Bhasma has the power to fulfill all your wishes if you apply it strictly as per the vidhi. In the morning, after the bath men may wear wet bhasma chanting Om Nama : Shivaya on 5 or 8 or 16 or 32 places of body with forefinger, middle finger and ring finger as three lines. Women should wear it in the dry form only. All other conditions are same for women also. In the evening both men and women should apply it after the bath in powder form on the forehead and body as described above. Bhasma should not be applied if your body is impure in any manner. You can try this and chant Om Nama: Shivaya 108 times daily, you will get all your wishes fulfilled. This is because bhasma when applied in this manner will purify your body, mind and soul. With pure body, mind and soul if you pray anything, it will be fulfilled easily.
I want to know where and when I can go to temple and ask lord Shiva to help me get good job and make more money
I want to live with my boy friend by marriage. There r so many obstacles here.so please suggest any manthras to live with him life long

@jklnm! Just believe in god and give a best try to it. You will succeed. If you need help or remedies in reference to your horoscope, consult a priest nearby. More than anything else a sincere prayer to god and effort will get you to better position.
Lord Shiva Will Help Every one Who Prays With A Pure Heart .. And Not Bad Intentions. And Also He Will Look What Karmas You Are Doing Everyday. So Do Good Karmas For Good Results Friends. Om Namah Shivaye. Jai Shiva Sharkar. Jai Bholenath.

I’m in Ghana and is kinda difficult to get all those items used in worshiping Lord Shiva, can any one give me an advice, because i’m not a Hindu, i’m a Ghanaian and i dont understand the language u’ve written in Hindu. please help me to learn how to worship Lord Shiva.
Hi Frank! What ever is mentioned to worship can all be found in any barren and forest land even. You just need a small column like stone as show in the image (small or big will do) instead of temple to pray at home. And Bhasma can be lime stone (calcium carbonate) which is routinely found around. Then the mantra which is written is in “Sanskrit” language which is not know to many Hindus of present generation as well. So you can just know the meaning of the slok (mantra) and mug up it to spell daily. The link given to wikipedia has the full meaning of the slok “Om triyambakam….”. Please check.
Thank you so much for putting up the information about Lord Shiva
Thanks for the valuable tips …. But all r telling Saturday is better than Monday why….??
Saturday is preferred for lord hanuman, lord balaji but it is interesting to hear for lord shiva. He is called Somesh as he has a moon on his head. Moons day is monday so people prefer monday as a good for lord shiva worship.
Hari Om,
Lord Parvathi Parameshwara are the Parents to all kind of Living Beings…. For Instance, in Shiva Pujja mantras, Pandits recite “purvva jha” it says they are before the universe… i mean, say whatever they are before to that….
So praying Lord Shiva and thinking of him is a very good sign of Moksha siddi…. Even Lord sri mannarayana (sri vykunta adhipathi, Lakshmi pathi… sri maha Vishnu murthi) says to his devotees that one who has great devotions to him without praying Shiva are not his devotees in Garuda puranam… its vice versa… applies to Shiva bhakthi as well…. but please make sure that lord Shiva and Vishnu are the one in one…. to be straight, they both as one.
Go get the Blessings of Sri Lord Parameshwara, one can visit Shiva temple in Pradosha vela ( Around Evening 6 PM ) in this time Shiva as an ardhanadehswara roopam he will do Shiva tandavaam and he goes a round all the Universe…. Make sure of doing 3 Shiva pradikshinass… (Shiva pradkishanm is unique way, please read Shiva puranam for the details or google it), then sit for dhyanam of him by reciting “OM NAMA SHIVAYA” for 108 times by closing eyes and by thinking that you are praying(pooja) to Shiva lingam and that Shiva lingam is in the universe and that universe is in his head…. this is said in Shiva puranam…
One who prays Lord Parvathi Parameshwara are so lucky that no graha pidda will be their on them… bcoz lord Shiva the adhipathi of navagrahas and panch buthass (Father of Universe, Planets, panch buthass)…
One Can Read the Life History of 63 Shiva Nayanars … To know what is a Shiva bakthi and how does he bless his devotees… over this link you can download them…
