Why Mahashivratri is special

One of my favourite festivals is the spiritual Mahashivratri. Though it is called a festival, unlike others this is observed with meditation, prayers, fasting and adding joyous music/ chants, as part of the celebrations. Move beyond the material into inner reflection, experience magic by connecting to the #voiceinme. Personally, I see this as a time conducive for everyone to reflect.

It is a?spiritual experience because It is the night of PAUSE.

People: Everyone around us gives us some kind of energy. Be mindful of what you are giving energy to . Each one who brings in positivity from within is the one who will allow the inner growth and development. Spend more time with such people. It is not that they do not have negative thoughts, it? is just that they do not allow such thoughts to grow. Focus on the positive.

Awareness:This festival is about removal of the inner darkness which stops your growth. Do not allow these qualities such as ignorance, ego and desires to? take over. The purpose of this festival is to remove this inner darkness. Look within to highlight this awareness.?

Understanding: Logically the next step after awareness is understanding. It is very important to understand that being aware of our triggers is the basic step. Life many a time can challenge you. You always have the choice.?

Surrender: The process of surrender is to be detached from the fruits of action. Life has a way to challenge us. Give the best of yourself in your actions. The outcome has many other factors that affect it. This attitude allows us to find our peace.

Effective: If all the above are followed the best part is connecting to your effective self. Meditation helps us connect to that effective self. Remembering God, we can restore the lost connection during the process of meditation.This then allows us to be our best versions. The meditations that we do during this? festival is thus transformative.

Would love to know what the festival means to you.
