Maha Shivaratri – Embracing the Infinite
February 25 @ 5:48 pm - February 26 @ 6:37 am
Maha Shivaratri is a sacred night dedicated to Lord Shiva, symbolizing the union of the individual soul with infinite consciousness. Celebrated during the darkest night of the lunar month, it represents the dissolution of ignorance and the awakening of inner wisdom.
This auspicious occasion invites deep reflection, meditation, and spiritual growth. It’s a time to transcend limitations, align with the cosmic energy, and experience the stillness and vastness of Shiva’s essence. Maha Shivaratri reminds us of the power of inner transformation and the infinite potential within us all.
The day before Shivaratri, it’s time to gear up! Only consume a single meal to prepare for the sacred fast ahead. On Shivaratri we take a Sankalpa (a powerful vow) to fast through the day, and seek Lord Shiva’s blessings for strength and focus. This pledge is your cosmic commitment to self-discipline and devotion, promising not to eat until the next day after sunrise. It’s a spiritually charged way to align your mind, body, and soul with Shiva’s infinite energy!
