Unlock Lord Shiva's Blessings This Sawan, Chant These Mantras, Present 4 Offerings Every Monday

The holy month of Sawan is dedicated to Lord Shiva. Throughout Sawan, devotees worship Lord Shiva and please the almighty for their blessings. From fasting every Monday to performing Puja at Lord Shiva temples, devotees follow many rituals during Sawan. It is believed that those who worship Lord Shiva with all heart during Sawan are blessed with happiness, wealth, and wisdom.

To seek the blessings of Lord Shiva, the devotees must make the right offerings at the Shivalinga and recite mantras that please the almighty. We spoke to our astro expert Radhakant Vats and asked him to share some astro remedies for Shaivites.

What To Offer To Lord Shiva During The Month Of Sawan?

Offer Bel Patra

Bel Patra is believed to be a sacred plant offered to deities. Bel patra means the leaf of the bel tree. If puranas are to be believed, devotees who offer bel patra to Lord Shiva are bestowed with happiness and success. It is believed that Bel patra has the power to absorb Lord Shiva's energy and this is why devotees take it to their homes and consume it after offering it to the god.

Offer bel patra along with dhatura to Lord Shiva every Monday during Sawan. According to Puranas, dhatura was a fruit that emerged from Lord Shiva's chest when he drank poison. For years now, the fruit is offered to Lord Shiva during the month of Sawan. Dhatura is believed to be a symbol of negativity. Astrologically, offering it to Lord Shiva helps keep hate and jealousy at bay.

Panchamrita is a mix of five ingredients - milk, curd, sugar, honey, and ghee. This mixture is used for 'Abhisheka' during Puja. After puja, this panchamrita is to be consumed by the devotees as prasad. It is believed that offering Panchamitra, the holy offering, helps please Lord Shiva. Prepare panchamrita and offer it at the Shivlinga. This will bring happiness and prosperity to your home. The astro remedy will also keep all troubles at bay.
