Maha Shivratri
The Great Night of Shiva

The Significance
Why Maha Shivratri matters
- 01
Maha Shivratri marks the night Shiva performed the cosmic dance and the union of Shiva and Shakti.
- 02
Devotees keep a night-long vigil, chanting 'Om Namah Shivaya' and offering abhishekam to the Shivalinga.

Rudram chanting and Rudra homa on this night are considered especially powerful for health and liberation.
