Mahashivratri: Night of Shiva - A Night with the Divine
About
Mahashivratri (also spelled Maha Shivaratri) is one of the largest and most significant sacred festivals of India, celebrating the grace of Shiva, regarded as the Adi Guru - the first Guru from whom the Yogic tradition originates. On this darkest night of the year the planetary positions create a powerful natural upsurge of energy in the human system. It is enormously beneficial for one’s physical and spiritual wellbeing to stay awake and aware in a vertical posture throughout the night. Mahashivratri offers a unique opportunity to align with these forces of nature for greater wellbeing. The exuberant nightlong festival at the center creates the ideal ambience for an intense spiritual experience.
Sadhguru
Sadhguru: In the Indian culture, at one time, there used to be 365 festivals in a year. In other words, they just needed an excuse to celebrate every day of the year. These 365 festivals were ascribed to different reasons, and for different purposes of life. They were to celebrate various historical events, victories, or certain situations in life like sowing, planting, and harvesting. For every situation there was a festival. But Mahashivratri is of a different significance.
