The beloved Lord of all, with shimmering pendants hanging from his ears, having beautiful eyebrows and large eyes, one who is full of mercy with a cheerful countenance and a blue speck on his throat. I worship Him who is beloved of his devotees, who is Shankara, the Lord of all.
Lord Shiva is among the God Trinity. He is considered as the perfect householder, and He is the perfect ascetic too. He lives in Kailash as well as in the cremation grounds. He is the provider of all the worldly pleasures, yet he possesses nothing. He is the first Guru, the AadiGuru. He is the husband of Mother Goddess Parvati, father of Kartikeya and Lord Ganesha. He had great devotees like Lord Ram and Ravana. He is the prime God of a lot of people in this world as He fulfills all the wishes.
He is the remover of diseases in His MahaMrityunjaya form. He is the remover of untimed death in His MahaKaal form. He is the remover of obstacles and all the challenges in His Paashupataastrey form. He is the greatest dancer in His Natraj form, He is the provider of all the worldly pleasures in His MahaGaurishwar form. In a nutshell, out of love towards His devotees, Lord Shiva has taken several forms to fulfill their needs.
Shravan month is an entire month dedicated to Lord Shiva. Every day of this month is great to accomplish sadhanas. Each Monday is a day to obtain a boon from Lord Shiva. This year, we have four Mondays in this Shravan Month and we can easily fulfill a lot of wishes by performing various sadhanas of Lord Shiva. Presented below are four sadhanas related to Lord Shiva that should be performed by sadhaks to live a happy life.
First Monday for Good Health (03-Aug)
The first Monday should be used to maintain good It’s health. wisely said that the biggest asset of a human being is good health as only a person with good health can enjoy anything else in life.
Vyayamat Labhate Swasthyam

Health is the biggest wealth in one’s life. It is the only thing with which all the other things can be achieved in life. With exercise, one can achieve perfect health, happiness, longevity and strength.
One form of Lord Shiva is also called Baidnath and hence worshipping the Lord in this form can help a person to get rid of all sorts of diseases. Not only this, but a person can also obtain a good personality, attraction and glow on the face by the grace of Lord Shiva.

The person should utilize the second Monday for winning over the enemies. Our enemies are not only in human form, but they can also be in the form of poverty, struggles, everyday challenges that come in our path and drain out our energy. Due to this reason only, Chanakya mentioned:
Nasti Buddhimataam Shatru
The above verse means that wise people have no enemy because they understand the negative side of having enemies in life. On one hand where Lord Shiva is a quick appeasing God, He is also a fearsome warrior. His various forms like Bhairav, Veerbhadra etc. are all capable of demolishing even the toughest opponents.

Obtaining wealth is one thing and retaining it another. We can see a lot of people around us who earn a good income, however, by the end of the month, they are as good as any poor people. No matter how hard they try, money creeps out of their pocket for one reason or another. Many a times, even if the person curbs their wishes to spend the money, some calamity comes into the life of such a person, and the money gets drained out.
The reason behind it is the nature of Goddess Lakshmi, She can’t remain bound. One must perform special procedures to keep Her bounded within the house and thus to ensure whatever we earn is spent well and only when it is required. Presented below is one such sadhana which can bring wonders to the life of a person and can help retain the hard-earned money.

Then chant one round of Guru Mantra with the Vidyut rosary and pray to Gurudev for success in sadhana.
Next place the Akhanda Vaibhav Jyotirlinga in a copper plate and worship it with vermillion, rice grains, flowers and offer some sweet made of milk. Now chant 3 rounds of the mantra below. Mantra

Drop all the Sadhana articles in a river or pond the next day. This completes the sadhana procedure. You will be left astonished to see how your useless expenses are getting restricted and your money has started to stay with you.

Before the battle of Mahabharat, Lord Krishna advised Arjun to perform Paashupataastrey sadhana if he wanted to defeat the huge army of Kauravas, wanted to win over death and wished for good fortune in times ahead.
