Shiva Linga is decorated with Bel Leaves, flowers, and Rudraksha.
- Recital of Laghunyasa
The priests perform the Rudrabhishek with the Rudraksha beads by reciting the Laghunyasa (Chant for Health and Healing).

Next, the Shivopasana Mantra is chanted for protection from all evils.
- Recital of 108 names of Lord Shiva

- Recital of Sri Rudram
The Sri Rudram, which is a part of chapter 16 and 18 of the Yajur Veda, is then recited. During the pooja, everybody needs to stay quiet and hear the shlokas and mantra. Chanting the Sri Rudram; especially if chanted in rhythm, purifies the entire atmosphere and wipes out all the sins.

I want to do Rudrabhishek at Trimbakeshwar temple at Nasik. Can I just go to temple and take any pujari who would help me perform puja
Yes you can do that. However make sure you are going to the temple early in the morning.
Can you please let me know the difference between Laghu Rudra and Rudra abhishek and can it be performed at home
They both are essentially the same. The only difference is in the number of rudras that are chanted. To chant the Rudra 11x is called a Laghu Rudra, or an Ekadasa Rudra. Taking this further, 11 Ekadasa Rudras constitute a Maharudra.
It is definitely not advisable to perform this at home. You need to perform it at a Lord Shiva temple.

Dear Prema, For the procedure and other things you should consult your poojari itself. God’s blessings will always help but if you are having problems at work or in your relationships then it’s very important to have a mature conversation with the people concerned and sort out the issues.
