What Is Mahashivratri?
Mahashivratri, known as the Great Night of Lord Shiva, holds a special place in India's spiritual traditions. It is regarded as one of the most powerful nights of the year for inner growth and spiritual elevation. Spiritual gurus describe this night as an opportunity to align oneself with heightened cosmic energies.
According to Isha Foundation, Mahashivratri carries varied meanings for different groups of people. For householders, it commemorates the divine union of Shiva and Parvati, symbolising harmony in family life. Those focused on worldly success interpret it as the day Shiva overcame negativity and obstacles.
For ascetics and yogis, the night marks the moment Shiva became one with Mount Kailash, embodying absolute stillness. In yogic philosophy, Shiva is revered not merely as a deity but as the Adi Guru, the first teacher who imparted the science of yoga. Mahashivratri is seen as the night of profound stillness and inner silence.
