After this, clean the temple and spread a red or yellow cloth on a small platform and install the idol of Shiva family. Now worship Lord Shiva properly. After this, if possible, take bath again for evening puja. Offer all the puja materials including water, belpatra, fruits, flowers, dhatura on Shivalinga. Listen or recite Pradosh Vrat Katha during puja. Chant Lord Shiva’s seed mantra ‘Om Namah Shivay’ with Rudraksha rosary. In the end, perform aarti of all the gods and goddesses along with Shiva and Gauri. If possible, definitely visit Shiva temple and have darshan of Bholenath. Offer water to Shivling. Finally, apologize for the mistake committed knowingly or unknowingly and distribute the Prasad among all the people present in the house.
