Shiva Pooje in Bangalore
A Shiva Pooje at home is simpler than a Rudrabhisheka: worship of the Shivalinga with water or milk, bilva leaves, vibhuti and flowers, Shiva ashtottara or Panchakshari japa, and mangalarati. Bangalore families book it on Mondays, on Karthika Somavaras, on Pradosha or on a family occasion.

What is Shiv Puja?
A devotional puja of Lord Shiva with jal abhishek, bel patra and Panchakshari mantra, simple, meaningful and suited to Mondays, Sawan and Pradosh.
North Indian families may ask for Somvar Shiv Puja in Shravan with a Hindi aarti, while Tamil families may want Thevaram verses. A Pandit can follow your family's tradition.
ॐ त्र्यम्बकं यजामहे सुगन्धिं पुष्टिवर्धनम्।
उर्वारुकमिव बन्धनान्मृत्योर्मुक्षीय माऽमृतात्॥
Oṁ tryambakaṁ yajāmahe sugandhiṁ puṣṭivardhanam, urvārukam iva bandhanān mṛtyor mukṣīya mā'mṛtāt.
Why Families Choose Bangalore for Shiv Puja
Shiva has been worshipped in Bangalore for centuries. The Gavi Gangadhareshwara cave temple in Gavipuram is famous for the Makara Sankranti evening when sunlight passes between Nandi's horns to reach the linga, the Kadu Malleshwara temple gave Malleswaram its name, and the Someshwara temple in Halasuru is one of the city's oldest.
Veerashaiva and Lingayat families, a large community in Karnataka, have their own worship traditions and priests; other Kannada families and families from across India often book a Pandit for a home Shiva Pooje.

Shiv Puja in Bangalore: FAQs
If yours is not here, ask it. A real person answers every message on WhatsApp.
What is the difference between Shiva Pooje and Rudrabhisheka?
Shiva Pooje is a simpler worship with archane and aarti. Rudrabhisheka adds the chanting of Sri Rudram while the linga is bathed.
Can the Pandit bring a Shivalinga?
Yes, if you do not have one. Mention it when you enquire.
Does PujaKarma arrange pooje at Kadu Malleshwara or Gavi Gangadhareshwara?
No. PujaKarma is not affiliated with any temple. We help you book a Pandit for Shiva Pooje at your home or venue.
How much does Shiva Pooje cost in Bangalore?
It depends on the rites and samagri. Pricing is shared on WhatsApp after understanding your requirements.
