The Shiva Lingam is worshiped throughout the night.
It is also said the Mother Laxmi resides in the throat when one recites Om Namah Shivaya.
It is the Guru Herself that prays to Lord Shiva to reap His boons and love on Her chelas this night. The Guru observes vigil through out the night and conquers all darkness or negativity that comes near Her chelas.
