Dear Ardis ~ thank you so much for reminding us. What might we do that would be a way of honoring this festival (since most of us here are without our Shiva Puja Beginners and Advanced Shiva Pujas). I can think of putting my Shiva Nataraj in a beautiful setting, surrounded with flowers and candles, of offering a flower to Shiva (is there a particularly auspicious time?), of chanting Om Namah Shivaya, of singing my favorite Shiva bhajans, of sitting silently in the presence of Shiva. I am interested to know what your thoughts on this are. Shiva Ki Jai ~ Linda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
