This day also commemorates the Tandava, the cosmic dance of creation, preservation, and destruction.
Maha Shivratri signifies the great victory of light over darkness and ignorance. Mahashivrati is a festival that reminds us to bow down to the source of energy that is running us.
To honor Lord Shiva on this beautiful occasion, the devotees have a full-day fast to celebrate life and existence. Temples and other religious institutions celebrate Maha Shivratri with Rudra Puja to honor Lord Shiva.
The devotees sign various Vedic mantras and do certain festivities. This pooja brings great positivity and purity to the environment and transforms negative emotions.
In India and many other countries, people celebrate Mahashivratri passionately and enthusiastically. Devotees engage in many rituals and ceremonies and decorate the temples with many lights and other decorations.
Lord Shiva is a true God and one of the Trinity God - Lord Brahma, Lord Vishnu, and Lord Mahesh. Shiva is the God of destruction, a significant destroyer of ignorance, evil forces, and ego.
There are many names of Lord Shiva and he is one of the greatest givers and wishful God. He is known as Mahadeva, Bholenath, Shiva, Shambhu, Rudra, Hara, Mahakala, & Vishveshwaraye.
He can destroy everything and able to bring transformation to the universe. Shiva has a snake around his neck and holding a Damru in his hand which represents the circle of life.
Lord Shiva has a third eye on his forehead which is also known as Trinetra symbolizes wisdom. He is powerful among all and has various divine powers.
He also has a crescent moon on his forehead and that is the reason why he is known as Chandrashekar.
Maa Parvati is the Goddess known as Shakti, the divine feminine energy. They both symbolize the feminine and masculine energy that creates balance in the universe.
Lord Shiva signifies wisdom, discipline, and transformation and these three qualities are essential for the digital marketing industry as well.
