The festival falls on the 14th day of the dark fortnight of the month of Phalguna (February-March) in the Hindu calendar. It is marked by offering prayers, chanting mantras, and performing special poojas dedicated to Lord Shiva. The day is also observed by visiting Shiva temples, where devotees offer milk, water, bael leaves, and flowers to the deity.
Maha Shivratri is a time for spiritual reflection and renewal, with devotees seeking to cleanse themselves of past sins and seek the blessings of Lord Shiva for a prosperous and peaceful life. The festival is celebrated with great fervor and devotion across India, with people coming together to celebrate the glory of Lord Shiva through prayer, fasting, and rituals. Images of Lord Shiva and his family, including Parvati, Ganesha, and Kartikeya, adorn the temples and homes of devotees during this auspicious occasion.
