Jabalpur, Naiduniya Rep. Mahashivratri 2022: Devotees have started preparations for the Mahashivratri festival that falls on March 1. In which Lord Ashutosh will be consecrated for eight hours. The object which is used in the consecration of the Lord gives a different kind of virtuous result to the devotee. In which especially milk, curd, ghee, honey, sugar are used. Let us know what is their importance.
Milk: Milk is considered sattvik from the point of view of religion and its effect on the mind. In this too, cow’s milk is considered the most sacred and good. There is a special use of milk in Shiva’s Rudrabhishek. When Rudrabhishek is performed on Shivling with milk, all the wishes are fulfilled. Donating milk on Monday strengthens the moon. Taking a bath by adding a little milk to the water removes mental stress and reduces worries.
The Shivling is anointed with milk. Do you know the reason behind this? The answer to this is mentioned in the Vishnu Purana and the Bhagavata Purana, the story of the churning of the ocean. According to the legend, when Lord Shiva drank the poison to save the world during the churning of the ocean, his entire throat turned blue. The effect of this poison also started falling on Lord Shiva and Goddess Ganga sitting in his hair. In such a situation, all the deities requested Shiva to take milk. As soon as Shiva consumed the milk, the effect of the poison in his body started decreasing. However, his throat turned blue forever and he got a new name, Neelkanth. Since then the tradition of offering milk on Shivling started.
curd: It is believed that anointing with curd leads to child happiness. By doing Rudrabhishek with curd, one also gets the building and vehicle.
Honey : Anointing with honey increases wealth. Along with this, anointing with honey also destroys old diseases.
Ghee: Abhishek with ghee also brings increase in wealth and health.
Sugar: A person becomes a scholar by anointing him with milk mixed with sugar.
Perfume: If you are not happy with married life, then anoint Lord Shiva with perfume. By doing this, your relationship with your husband will become sweet.
sugarcane juice : Anointing with sugarcane juice on Shivling gives immense Lakshmi.
mustard oil : If you are troubled by enemies, then by anointing the Shivling with mustard oil, the enemies will be defeated.
The innocent are happy by offering Bel leaves: Belpatra is called ‘Bilvapatra’ in Sanskrit. It is very dear to Lord Shiva. It is believed that Lord Shankar’s mind remains cool with Bel leaves and water. By using them in worship, they get pleased very soon.
That’s why we offer cannabis: After consuming Halahal poison, Shiva’s body turned blue and started burning, but still Shiva was completely calm, but Gods and Ashwini Kumars offered water to Lord Shiva with a sense of service and Vijaya to reduce the effect of poison. (Hemp plant), Belpatra and Datura mixed with milk and given to Lord Shiva as a medicine. Since then people also started offering cannabis to Lord Shiva.

By anointing the innocent with different things, its virtuous result is obtained. This should be taken care of in worship.

Lord Shankar is soon pleased with the worship performed in the scriptural manner. Offer things dear to the innocent at the time of Abhishek.
