Overview

Parthiv Shivling Puja for families in Rathyatra

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.

Rathyatra is one of the best-known crossings in central Varanasi, linking Sigra, Mahmoorganj and the roads towards the south of the city. Its name comes from the traditional Rath Yatra fair of Lord Jagannath held in the area each year.

ॐ त्र्यम्बकं यजामहे सुगन्धिं पुष्टिवर्धनम्।

उर्वारुकमिव बन्धनान्मृत्योर्मुक्षीय माऽमृतात्॥

Mahamrityunjaya Mantra, Rig Veda 7.59.12

Planning Your Puja in Rathyatra

The crossing is congested for much of the day; early-morning slots are easiest.
During the Rath Yatra fair, expect road diversions and heavy crowds nearby.
Commercial buildings may restrict open flames, so check before a havan.
Parking can be limited near the crossing; arrange a drop-off point for the Pandit.
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.
