Vivek ji - Shiva and Pashupatinath(ENG)
Maha Shivaratri is an annual festival celebrated in honor of the deity Lord Shiva in the Sanatana (Hindu) tradition. The festival is traditionally celebrated on the fourteenth day of the first half of the lunar month of Phalguna, according to the Hindu calendar. The festival celebrates the sacred union of Shiva and Parvati, as it has been passed down through generations.
This festival holds great significance in Hinduism as it symbolizes the triumph over darkness and ignorance in both life and the world. By remembering Shiva, chanting prayers, fasting, and meditating on ethics and virtues like honesty, non-injury to others, charity, forgiveness, and the discovery of Shiva, one can observe and honor this sacred tradition.
Vivek ji delivered a comprehensive talk when Journalist Sanjay Tiwari asked him many questions on the different facets of Shiva during the auspicious night of Mahashivratri in 2022.
