Overview

Rudrabhishek for families in Madinaguda

Rudrabhishek is the abhishek, or ritual bathing, of the Shivling performed while chanting the Rudrashtadhyayi (commonly called Rudri) from the Shukla Yajurveda, or the Sri Rudram (Namakam Chamakam) in South Indian traditions. Offerings such as Gangajal, milk, curd, ghee, honey, sugarcane juice and panchamrit are poured over the Shivling in a continuous stream, followed by bel patra, flowers and bhasma.

Madinaguda lies on the Mumbai highway between Miyapur, Hafeezpet and Chandanagar in north west Hyderabad. The highway is lined with shopping, hospitals and restaurants, and the side roads are filled with apartment complexes of all sizes.

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
