As explained in Brahma Purana,
In Satyayuga, Brahma was being worshipped. All Gods and Goddess were living with human beings on earth. There were no temples, yaga mantapas or a place for worship.
In Tretayuga, Surya Deva was worshipped.
In Dwaparayuga, Lord Vishnu was worshipped. During this period, temples were built. This yuga was known as Naama dhaarana yuga.
In Kaliyuga (at present), if one worships Lord Shiva (ie. Shiva Aradhane), chant His mantras, perform Shiva related tantras and yantras then one can get His blessings soon. This yuga/era is called Vibhooti dhaarana yuga.
After the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th pada of Kaliyuga, again Satyayuga begins and Brahma will be re-worshipped.
During the Vedic era, Agni, Vayu, Aakasha, Jala, Prithvi, Surya, Chandra, Brahmanasvathe. After the various incarnations of Sri Vishnu, like Narasimha, Rama etc we started building temples for each deity and began to worship.
If one worships the deities worshipped during the Vedic period, then he/she will achieve success soon.
As per the Paetkaarini Tantra, the best place to attain mantra siddhi is -
At the junction of 4 roads (here the geopathic energy level is very high and the energy flows from all the 4 directions-North, East, South, West).
Sit at the center of the junction during night time or day time and chant your favorite mantra.
Chanting at the 4 roads junction, gives 100 folds of benefit that one gains when chanted during Eclipse/Grahana Kaala, Pradosha Kaala, birth days (for example Friday), birth star/nakshatra day
Note- One can chant the mantra in Park also.
Which place is suitable for mantra chanting or japa?
Ans: If we chant
in the house, then the fruit of the japa will benefit all creatures upto 3 miles
On the bank of the River - 10 miles
In Shiva Temple - 16 miles
As per the Narada Samhita- Chanting at Shiva Temple, Gurukula/Guru Ashrama, River bank, In front of Agni like diya/Kunda will help one attain siddhi quickly.
Forest, Hill top, Cow shed, Dams, Canals, shade of the trees are good places for chanting or japa.
Following are the details of the places and the phala gained(self benefit) from chanting in these places
House- 100 fold phala
Cow shed- 1 lakh fold phala
Shiva Temple or any temple - 1 Crore phala
Bank of the river - Anantha phala (unlimited)
If the Shiva Linga is on the river bank (Ex- Kashi Rameshwara) - 1 shata sahasra phala
Sea, small river channels - 1000 sahasra phala
In front the Guru- One can connect directly with the deity
In front of the Parents- Anantha koTi phala
How to identify the auspicious direction ?
Ans: Facing - Lord/Deity - Benefits
East - Indra is the Lord - Increases focus of mind
West- Varuna is the Lord. No thirst, dry mouth, excessive sweating
South - Never face towards this direction- Yama, kuja, pitra devate reside in this direction. Sometimes the souls of our ancestors may connect when chanted in this direction. Hence, this direction is not advisable for chanting.
North- This direction is suitable for all categories of people (based on their work) - Kshatriya, Brahmana, Vyshya, Shudra.
As per Shiva Rahasya and Paetkaarini Grantha, one can chant the mantras of various forms of Lord Shiva. For example - Mrutyunjaya, Veerabhadra, Bhairava, Dakshinamurthy, Vishwanatha etc.
