Dear aspirants, Maha Shivaratri is an annual festival dedicated to the Hindu god Lord Shiva. Out of the 12 Shivratris in the year, the Mahashivratri is considered to be the most auspicious one. Maha Shivratri, which will be celebrated on March 4 this year, falls once a year during the months of February and March. Unlike most Hindu festivals which are celebrated during the day, the Maha Shivaratri is celebrated at night
Ratri means ‘night’ and also ‘to take refuge.’ Shivratri is the night we take refuge in our spirit i.e., Shiva. It is the time to celebrate the soul or consciousness within. During Mahashivratri, we practice sadhana and take refuge in the divine consciousness.
There are several legends behind this great celebration. Some believe this was the day that Lord Shiva swallowed poison to save the universe. Others believe that it is the day when Shiva married the goddess, Parvati. It is also said that Shiva performed the Tandava on Maha Shivaratri — a dance which signifies creation, preservation, and destruction
