Re: Teach me (very basic) SHiva lingam abhisheka
Namaste,
Thanks Sherab for starting this post. I was wondering on some points of abhishekam for shiva lingam and I'm glad I have some of this cleared up, like which way the lingam and the worshipper should face.
My question is what should be done with the offerings of water, milk, honey, etc. once the lingam has been bathed and anointed with kumkum and chandan powder? It this normally taken as prasad? If you are using a bowl/tray to collect the fluids that run off the lingam, how is this disposed of or cleared up later?
