    Overview

    Parthiv Shivling Puja for families in Panchganga Ghat

    In Parthiv Shivling Puja the Shivling is made from clean earth (parthiv means of the earth), usually mixed with Gangajal. Devotees may make a single Shivling or, as per sankalp, 11, 108 or even more small Shivlings.

    Panchganga Ghat lies on the northern part of Varanasi's riverfront. Its name is traditionally explained as the meeting place of five rivers, and it is one of the ghats pilgrims have long visited for a holy dip in Kashi.

    ॐ त्र्यम्बकं यजामहे सुगन्धिं पुष्टिवर्धनम्।

    उर्वारुकमिव बन्धनान्मृत्योर्मुक्षीय माऽमृतात्॥

    Oṁ tryambakaṁ yajāmahe sugandhiṁ puṣṭivardhanam, urvārukam iva bandhanān mṛtyor mukṣīya mā'mṛtāt.

    We worship the three-eyed Lord, fragrant and nourishing. May he free us from bondage, as a ripe cucumber from its vine, and lead us towards immortality.Mahamrityunjaya Mantra, Rig Veda 7.59.12

    Planning Your Puja in Panchganga Ghat

    The ghat is reached on foot through old city lanes; vehicles stop well short of it.
    Steps are steep and can be slippery, so plan carefully for elderly relatives.
    Kartik mornings are busy with devotees taking snan.
    Boats from the central ghats are another way to reach this stretch of the river.
    Water levels rise in the monsoon and the lower steps may be under water.
    Ask the Pandit to arrange clean clay if you do not have it.
    Decide how many Shivlings you want to make; larger numbers take longer.
