Please avoid doing the below mentioned activities when you visit the Lord Shiva temples. 1. Never spit or do anything that reduces the cleanliness of the temple. 2. Never speak to anyone (beyond some few formal words) anything inside the temple or speak in the mobile phone for a longer duration. 3. Never criss cross between the Lingam and the Nandhi. 4. Never worship or praise a man inside the temple. 5. Do not shout or sing or pray that turns as a disturbance to others. 6. Do not go between the God and anyone praying to the God. 7. Do not worship Navagrahas first. 8. Do not worship or do puja for the Navagrahas without worshiping the Lord Shiva. 9. Do not go around the temple, when the abhisekham is performed for the presiding deity. 10. Similarly, going around the temple is forbidden, when the curtains are down for decorations or for other rituals to the presiding deity. If we help the temples to be kept very clean for a day, then it is equivalent to do Parihar
