2.    Pray to Saturn to bless the stone and wearer at the start of the pooja.

3.    Make sure you donate mustard oil, black urud, salt, tea leaves, soap, and money. The money is as per the capacity of the person. Keep all this at the feet of a peepal tree and pray to god to bless you.

4.    Feed a male buffalo with green leaves and cotton seeds. Bathe the Shivling with milk.

You should stud the neelam in a gold ring. The best way to wear the blue Sapphire gemstone is on the middle finger of the right hand. The best time to wear the stone is on a Saturday after the stars have appeared in the sky. One may even wear the gemstone during an eclipse. However, one must make sure that the Neelam ratna has no inclusions as this would bring bad luck. People with a debilitating Saturn in their horoscope should not wear the gemstone.
