About this puja

Jal Abhishek of Lord Shiva at Pardeshwar Mahadev Temple, Ujjain, with sankalp, mantras and blessings.

The city of Ujjain holds the Mahakaleshwar Jyotirlinga, counted among Lord Shiva's 12 Jyotirlingas. Devotees come here in great numbers for Jal Abhishek, Rudrabhishek, Panchamrit Abhishek and other Shiva rituals. This puja is held at Pardeshwar Mahadev Temple and invokes Rudra, a form of Shiva. The pujari first takes the sankalp in the devotees' names and invokes Lord Shiva. Water is then poured over the Shivling while the mantras "ॐ नमः शिवाय" and the Maha Mrityunjaya mantra are recited. The puja ends with devotees receiving Shiva's blessings. Devotees hold that water offered to the Shivling cleanses sins and negativity and brings peace. Devotees traditionally offer it while praying for relief from stress, success in business and a happy family. Because Ujjain is a Jyotirlinga city, devotees believe it bears fruit sooner.
