Panchmukhi Belpatra: These days the month of Ashadh is going on. After this, the month of Sawan will begin, which has been dedicated to Mahadev, the god of gods. In Sawan, Lord Shiva performs the duty of the protector of the world. The tradition of doing special worship of Mahadev and performing Jalabhishek in Sawan has been going on for centuries. In Sawan, Shiva devotees perform Jalabhishek of Shivling with water in Kanwar. According to Drik Panchag, this year Sawan is starting from 30th July. This month will end on 28th August with the full moon of Sawan month.
No special thing is required to worship Mahadev in Saavan. At this time God becomes happy just by offering Panchmukhi Belpatra. Belpatra is considered very auspicious in the worship of Mahadev. Offering it to Shivling also gives special benefits in life. In such a situation, let us know what is Panchmukhi Belpatra and what is the correct method of offering it on Shivalinga?
You must have seen the three-leafed Belpatra, but the Panchmukhi Belpatra is also considered very special and important. Panchmukhi Belpatra has five leaves. This Belpatra has five leaves in one stalk. This is the reason why Belpatra with five leaves is very difficult to find. Panchmukhi Belpatra is also mentioned in Shiva Purana and other religious texts.
Belpatra with three leaves is considered to mean Brahma, Vishnu and Mahesh. At the same time, the leaves of Panchmukhi Belpatra are considered to be the form of Lord Shiva with five faces Sadyojaat, Vamdev, Aghor, Tatpurush and Ishaan. It is believed that whoever gets this Belpatra and offers it on Shivalinga, gets the special blessings of Mahadev. Positive energy is transmitted and wishes are also fulfilled.
Clean Panchmukhi Belpatra with water and offer it to Shivling. The Panchmukhi Belpatra offered to Shivling should not be broken. Write 'Om Namah Shivay' with the ring finger on the five leaves of Panchmukhi Belpatra. Only after this offer it to Shivling. Hold Panchmukhi Belpatra with both hands and offer it to Shivling. While offering Belpatra on Shivling, do chant the mantra 'Om Tatpurushaya Vidmahe Mahadevaya Dhimahi Tanno Rudrah Prachodayat' or 'Om Namah Shivay'.
