Q. Can complete beginners practice Lord Shiva meditation at home?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n
A.<\/strong> Yes. Sit in a comfortable cross-legged posture with an erect spine, close your eyes, focus on the eyebrow center (Ajna Chakra), and coordinate each inhalation and exhalation with the mental sound of Om Namah Shivaya.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
Q. What does Lord Shiva’s Third Eye symbolize during meditation?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n
