Science in the worship of Lord Shiva on Mahashivratri

    Science in the worship of 

Lord Shiva on Mahashivratri

The function of the 

'Shivpindi'

1. 

Emitting waves of Knowledge, 

Devotion and renunciation

Predominantly 

'sattva' waves of knowledge,

 'raja' waves of devotion 

and

 'tama' waves of Renunciation (Vairagya)

 are emitted by the 'Shivpindi'. 

During Mahashivratri, 

the emission increases by 30 percent.

2. 

Emission of subtle vibrations 

of chaitanya, bliss and peace

The 'Shivpindi' emits

 subtle vibrations of chaitanya, bliss and peace. 

During the Mahashivratri, 

the emission increases by 25 percent. 

This helps purify the subtle-body of 

one who worships the Shivpindi on this day. 

The 'sun' or the 'moon' channels 

in the body get activated as per necessity. 

The capacity to absorb the sattvaguna

 and chaitanya also increases. 

Due to the presence of the unmanifest

 Shiva principle in the Shivpindi 

and the vibrations of peace emitted,

 the Shivpindi remains cool and the

 mind too experiences peace. 

Worship of Shivpindi with devotion, 

activates the dormant Shiva principle. 

An offering of puffed rice and milk

 reaches Lord Shiva in the subtle form.

3. 

Receiving the

 'tarak or marak tatva (element)' 

as required

There is a confluence of the manifest 

and the unmanifest elements along with the 

'tarak and marak tatva' in the Shivpindi. 

(Tarak = Saviour; Marak = Destroyer). 

That is how worshipers receive the required element. 

The temperature of the Shivpindi increases due 

to the emission of the marak tatva 

and there one experiences bliss.

 Similarly, 

when the tarak tatva is emitted,

 the temperature drops and one experiences peace and bliss.
