When to wear / begin
Daily morning and evening worship is recommended once installed; Monday (Shiva's day), Pradosh and Mahashivratri are considered especially significant for worship.
Precautions / who should avoid
Keep in the puja room, not the bedroom; never offer turmeric, Tulsi leaves or coconut water to a Shivling, and prasad offered to it should not be eaten by the worshipper.
