Mahakal Puja

About Lord Mahakal | Significance of Mahakal Pooja & Yajgna

Lord Mahakal is one of the fiercest forms of Lord Shiva. The word ‘Mahakal’ is made by cojoining two words where ‘Maha’ refers to ‘Great’ and ‘Kal’ literally translates to ‘Time’. Thus, the name ‘Mahakal’ means the great one who rules time and death. He is the one who is beyond the cycles and concepts of death, time, fear, and life. Mahakal being the terrifying form of Lord Shiva is also known to be the spouse of the fierce Mahakali. Both the deities, Mahakal and Mahakali are known as the epitome and ultimate devastating potential energies of the Supreme Brahmana. They are not bound by any rules and have the capacity to dissolve the whole universe including the time and space and still exist in the form of Void. Mahakal dissolves the whole universe after every Kalpa. According to the iconography of Lord Mahakal, He is depicted having blue or black complexion signifying His all-embracing nature. Just the way colour black absolves all the other colours similarly, all the forms that ever existed are known to dissolve into the great Mahakal. He wears a garland of skulls and is seen seated on corpses. He is known to dwell at the cremation grounds. He is known to destroy in order to maintain the balance and brings life to new creation which can take the place of the dissolved beings. The wild Elephants are worshipped in some parts of Odisha, Jharkhand, and Dooars (that is, in eastern Bengal) as the manifestations of Lord Mahakal. The glories of Lord Mahakal are detailed in numerous Puranas and Vedic scriptures such as Shiva Purana, Skandpurana, Varaha Purana, Rudrayamala Tantra, Rudrasamhita and many more.  

The objective of performing the Mahakal puja is to appease the Supreme Lord Mahakal and to ask Him to destroy all the darkness, ignorance and evil that cause problems and troubles in one’s life. This powerful puja also helps to offer Moksha. Mahakal Puja is done for good health, protection, longevity of life and power. He also blesses His devotees with success, victory, and relief from all Planetary doshas. Worshiping Lord Mahakal ensures burning of all past negative karmas, ignorance and negativities and propels one on the path of spirituality and Moksha.
