The classic stories of Shiva Maha Purana contain the essence of all scriptural knowledge, absolve one from all sins, grant comforts in both earthly and heavenly planes of existence, remove the mental impurities so common in Kaliyuga, extol the divine mysteries of the eternal Sadashiva and fulfill wishes for Dharma (righteousness), Artha (wealth), Kama (desires) and Moksha (ultimate liberation). Shiva Maha Purana is bound to benefit anyone that reads or hears its contents. “Studying or contemplating even a single verse of this great classic with sincere devotion is sufficient to liberate the human mind in this very life. Worshipping this classic grants the daily benefit of performing the auspicious Ashwamedha (horse) yagna. Even a casual hearing of this great classic absolves one of all sins. A faithful salutation to it grants the benefit of prayers to all divine beings. Those that write about it comprehensively and make it available to the devotees of Shiva will be endowed with all knowledge of scriptures and be assured of a permanent place near the Lord. Anyone that takes up a fast on the fourteenth day of the moon and narrates the classic in a devotional congregation is worthy of worship. Every letter in this classic offers the benefit of scriptural illumination. Fasting and staying awake on the fourteenth day or night of the moon while studying or hearing the classic gives as much merit as donating many times one’s weight in gold to the most deserving at the sacred temple sites during the most auspicious and the truly rare solar eclipse events. Daily study and contemplation of this classic is sure to multiply the merits of such a person a million times. Whoever studies the Rudra Samhita portion of this great classic for just three days is able to recover from the worst sin of having harmed a saintly person. Studying the same thrice in silence in front of the divine Bhairava form will grant victory over desires for lowly indulgence. By circling around trees of bilva (bel) or vata (banyan) while studying or hearing the same, one is able to absolve sins of the extreme such as harming the virtuous.
