The ceremonial ablution of the phallic emblem with Pañcagavya on Sundays is specially recommended. Pañcagavya is the compound of cow’s urine, dung, milk, curd and ghee.
The Pranava (Om) is the sound-lingam, the Naada-lingam is the self-manifested, and the Bindulinga is the yantra. The Makaralinga is established in the form of the symbol.
The 'U' (pronounced as "U") is the moving Lingam, the 'A' is the form of the Guru. By worshipping the six Lingas continuously, one becomes liberated while living, without a doubt.
शिवस्य भक्त्या पूजा हि जन्ममुक्तिकरी नृणाम् । रुद्रा क्षधारणात्पादमर्धं वैभूतिधारणात् ११५ ।
A devout worship of Śiva liberates man from the bondage of births. A fourth benefit is achieved by wearing Rudrākṣa beads sacred to Śiva and a moiety is achieved by smearing the holy ashes over the forehead.
