Maha Shivratri 2025: The worship of Shivling is considered especially sacred in Hinduism. During the puja, Lord Shiva is anointed with water, milk, Belpatra, and other worship materials. After the abhishek, the water coming out of the Kalahari is considered extremely sacred. According to the scriptures and religious beliefs, sprinkling this water in the house not only gives spiritual benefits but also brings happiness and prosperity in life.

Destruction of negative energy and pure environment

It is said in the scriptures that the water offered to the Shivling is full of divine energy. In buildings where there is Vastu Dosh, after anointing the Shivling for happiness and peace, the water of the Jalahari should be brought home and sprinkled in the entire building while chanting the mantra 'Om Namah Shivaya Karaalam Mahakaal Kaalam Kripalam Om Namah Shivaya'. By doing this, all the negative energies present there are removed and the atmosphere of the house becomes pure and positive, due to which peace remains in the household life.

Health benefits and freedom from diseases
The water of Abhishekam on Shivling is considered to be especially curative. According to Garuda Purana, this water contains the grace of Shiva, which removes the mental and physical diseases of a person. When this water is sprinkled in the house, the health of the people living there remains good and no epidemic or disease can enter.

Removal of Vastu Dosh and Grah Dosh
According to Vastu Shastra, many times there is distress and unrest in the house due to Vastu Dosh. In such a situation, sprinkling the water offered on Shivling in the house reduces Vastu Dosh and increases the flow of positive energy in the defective places there. Also, this water reduces the inauspicious effects of Rahu, Ketu, and Saturn, due to which the family members are not affected by the planetary defects.

Economic prosperity and wealth arrival
It is described in the texts related to wealth and prosperity that water offered on Shivling can become a means of attaining Lakshmi. According to the belief, if this water is regularly sprinkled near the main door, place of worship, and vault of the house, then wealth increases in the house, and poverty ends. By the grace of Lord Shiva, stability and economic progress are achieved in household life.

Peace of mind and spiritual advancement

It is said in the Shiva Purana that the water offered to the Shivling has special spiritual power. When this water is sprinkled in the house, the mind of the residents remain calm and meditation and sadhana increase. This increases mutual love and affection in the family and provides relief from mental stress.
