Nandi Abhishekam

क्लीं काममूर्तये नमः शिवाय क्लीं
Kleem Kamurtaye Namah Shivaya Kleem

PRADOSHAM is an auspicious window of time dedicated to SHIVA and it has the capacity to alleviate ALL forms of difficulties (pain, suffering, diseases, poverty, etc). It also helps in opening the doors of liberation or MOKSHA.

As per Puranas, it is during the Pradosham period that Lord Shiva took the ‘Hala Hala Visha’ (Poison that arose while churning of ocean by Devasena & Asuras). Goddess Parvati stopped the poison in the neck of Lord Shiva. The neck of Lord Shiva turned blue hence Lord Shiva has the name ‘Nilakanda’.

During the Auspicious Time of Shukra Pradosham, Kailasa Houston offered Nandi Abhishekam, Alankaram, & Sri Shiva Puja.

Thank you Swamiji! 🙏🏻
