Maha Shivaratri is a popular Hindu festival celebrated every year in reverence of the Lord Shiva. The 'Great Night of Shiva' is an auspicious day believed to be the day of convergence of divine powers of Lord Shiva and Goddess Shakti. The night when Shiva performs the heavenly dance of creation, preservation and destruction.
On this day the planetary positions in the universe align with these spiritual energies. Tapas are performed in exchange for boons. Through the practice of meditation and yoga, we pay our respect and pray to Lord Shiva all day, chanting Om Namah Shiva.
