Rudrabhishek Puja Mahakal Jyotirlinga

Mahakal Rudrabhishek Puja is a highly influential Puja performed at Mahakaleshwar Jyotirlinga in Ujjain. Mahakaleshwar is considered to be the most prominent among the twelve Jyotirlingas and is called the “Kaal of all the Kaals”. In Rudrabhishek, Lord Shiva is anointed with various holy substances such as water, milk, curd, ghee, honey, Panchamrit, Belpatra, Gangajal, sandalwood and ash. Rudrasukta, Shiv Stotra and mantras are chanted in this Puja. It is believed that performing Rudrabhishek at Mahakal removes all obstacles in a person’s life, pacifies enemies and removes planetary defects. This Puja removes physical, mental and financial sufferings and provides happiness, prosperity and mental peace. This Puja is considered to be very fruitful especially for problems related to marriage, children, employment or court cases. Performing Rudrabhishek at Mahakaleshwar Temple is even more special because the Shivling here is considered to be self-manifested and awakened. By performing Rudrabhishek at Mahakaleshwar, one attains virtue, salvation and the infinite blessings of Lord Shiva. It is wonderful to come to Ujjain and experience the importance and divinity of this worship.
