Grishneshwar Temple

Meaning and Significance of Rudrabhishek Puja

The word Rudrabhishek is a combination of two Sanskrit words:

• Rudra (रुद्र) – One of the fiercest and most powerful forms of Lord Shiva, signifying his ability to destroy evil and negativity. "Rudra" is derived from the root word Rud, meaning to weep or to remove suffering. Lord Shiva, as Rudra, eliminates sorrow and grants divine blessings.
• Abhishek (अभिषेक) – A sacred ritual of bathing the deity with holy substances like water, milk, honey, ghee, curd, and sacred herbs while chanting Vedic mantras. It is believed to purify the soul, attract positive energy, and invoke divine grace.
