Greetings,

Thank you so much for the info Rishi Bhrigu. As a Priest of Marduk I can't wait to perform these dedications. I do have a question though, if I may. The mantras;

Om nama shivaya Om nama Shivaya Om nama Shivaya

Om tat phrushaayeh vidmahee mahadehvahya theemahi tannoh rudra prachodayat........

I am to chant/vibrate them as long as I am meditating or is there a set number of times for each?
And thanks again brother, May Shiva shine his compassion upon you.
Peace,
Nosotro Tehuti.

salutations tehuti.for the basic practicioners i wud say 108 is a good number to perform it.for the advanced practicioner with developed astral senses and those sensitive to currents and auras i would say use the mantra til you feel the vibrations.a point of time wil be reached when your heart is filled with inxplicable peace and happiness,thats when you know the peak of the mantra has been reached.

Greetings'Rishi,

Ok I am going to try this mantra 108 times tomorrow,. Which will be Friday here. What is the proper direction to face while saying this?

greetings son.

east will be the best place to face when you are doing rituals for lord shiva as Indra is the guardian of east and he is obedient unto shiva..

the guardian of the west is varuna who controls the oceans and winds, the southern guardian is Yama the lord of justics and death and north belongs to Kubera The god of wealth and prosperity..

P.s on a side note yesterday i happen to find an old and dirty shiva statue at a corner of a antique store and it pained me to no ends seeing the lord's image in a condition like that.he just pulled unto me as he is as much my father as my son.

i immediately bought the statue and proceeded to spent the entire night cleaning it and polishing it and today morning had a small ritual to consecrate him in my altar and to open the eyes of the shiva statue to bring him to life.i would like to share my jy wth all devotees and i have attached the consecated statue of the Lord in this message.Hope someone will help me out by posting the link.God bless..
