Shiva Lingam Abhishekam Kit for Home Worship
Shiva Lingam Abhishekam’s Items and Their Significance for Home Worship
Shiva Lingam abhishekam at home is a simple yet powerful way to connect with Lord Shiva, invite peace, and purify the mind and space, even in a busy UK routine. With the right Shiva Lingam and basic puja items from Giri UK, you can set up a neat abhishekam corner in any flat or house.
What is a Shiva Lingam abhishekam kit?
A Shiva Lingam abhishekam kit is essentially a set of core items needed to bathe (abhisheka) and worship Lord Shiva at home. Abhishekam involves offering water, milk, and other sacred liquids over the lingam while chanting mantras or simple prayers, followed by decorating and aarti.
From Giri UK, you can build your own kit easily using:
- A Shiva Lingam Idol in the UK offers options like Stone Shiva Lingam or Brass Shivaling for your home altar.
- An abhishek stand or puja plate which includes a Shivling abhishek stand to hold the lingam while pouring water and other offerings.
- Sacred waters like Gangajal & Rosewater for purification and abhishekam.
- Basic puja samagri such as vibhuti, kumkum, chandan, incense, deepam oil, and wicks from the Puja items category and books like Shiva Kavacha to pray.
Why perform Lingam abhishekam at home?
Abhishekam is considered one of the most beloved ways to worship Shiva because it cools and pleases the deity while washing away the devotee’s inner negativity. Many people perform it on Mondays, Pradosham days, or monthly Shivaratri for peace of mind, health, and relief from karma and past mistakes.
Spiritually, each substance includes water, milk, curd, honey, sugar, and bilva leaves that symbolise cleansing different layers of ego and impurities. Even if you keep it very simple with just water and Gangajal, the intention and devotion make the practice powerful.
For families in the UK, a regular home abhishekam keeps children connected to Shiva stories and traditions, builds a calm family ritual, and brings a temple-like feeling into a small home.
How to perform a simple Lingam abhishekam at home?
Here is a straightforward way to use your kit, suitable for any Indian family in the UK:
- Prepare the space and lingam
Place the lingam on an abhishek stand or plate, spread a clean cloth on the table or peetam, and light a ghee diya or lamp using deepam oil from Giri UK. - Purify with Gangajal or rosewater
Sprinkle a little Gangajal & Rosewater on the lingam and around the altar, praying for inner and outer cleansing. - Offer abhishekam liquids
Slowly pour water or milk over the lingam while chanting “Om Namah Shivaya” or a simple Shiva Kavacha in your language. You can use a small lota or spoon from your puja plate set. - Apply vibhuti and decorate
Wipe the lingam gently, apply vibhuti and a little kumkum or chandan, and then decorate the altar with artificial garlands or thoranams from Giri UK. - Light incense and offer aarti
Burn incense from the Puja collection and show a ghee diya or lamp flame in circular motions as aarti, praying for peace, protection, and blessings for the whole family.
Distribute prasad and Theertham.
Share a simple fruit or sweet as prasad and a few drops of abhishekam water or Gangajal as theertham.
