Shivaratri

Shivaratri is celebrated as birth-night of Lord Shiva.

Sahivaratri is the night of Falgun Krishna Chaturdasi under Hindu Lunar Calendar. This year Shivaratri is on  March 10, 2013 that is on Falgun 27, 2069 in Bikram Sambat Calendar.

The Lingodbhav Moorti of lord Shiva was self immerged at midnight of Shivaratri. So, this night is celebrated as the Birth-night of lord Shiva. Lord Shiva is called Bholenath too.

There are many stories behind the celebration of Shivaratri. 

During Samundra Manthan, the poison Halahal came out of the ocean. It started creating destruction all over. To protect the universe from the devastation Lord Shiva drank the poison and managed to keep it in his throat. His throat turned blue. Since then he is known as Nilkantha. Nila Kantha in Sanskrit is one with blue throat.

Shiva protected the world from the dangerous poison; therefore, people started celebrating the day as Shivaratri and thanking Shiva for shaving the world.

It is believed Lord Shiva married Goddess Parvati on this day.  Some places, Shivaratri is observed as marriage anniversary of Shiva-Parvati too.

Who is Lord Shiva

Shiva means auspicious one. He is one among Trimurti Gods: Brahma, Bishnu and Maheswor. Shiva is Maheshwor. Lord Shiva is regarded as creator, preserver, destroyer, concealer,

and reliever.

He lives in Himalaya at the Northern side of Nepal at mount Kailash and lives as a saint (sadhu) with snake around his neck, wear deer skin and sits on tiger's skin. Damaru is his musical instrument and Trisul is his weapon. Shiva wears rudraksha on his neck and his hair is home of the holly Ganga. Nandi (ox) is his vehicle. He is a great mediator and he notices everything that happens in the world. He is very kind to his devotees. Just chanting of "Om Namaha Sibhaya" relives anyone from sufferings.  Shiva's first wife was Satidevi and he married Parvati as his second wife. Ganesh and Kumar are his sons.  There are basically three things happened same day, on Falgun Sukla Chaturdashi 1. The Lingodbhav Moorti self immerged at midnight of this day. 2. Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati got married. 3. Lord Shiva took the Poison Halahal and became Nilkantha shaving the world from devastation. How is Maha Shivaratri celebrated According to the Shiva Puran, six items are regarded precious to worship and offer Lord Shiva in Maha Shivaratri.  The six Items are Beal fruit, Vermilion Paste (Chandan), Food Items (Prasad), Incense, Lamp (Diyo), Betel Leaves.  1) Beal Leaf (Marmelos leaf) - offering of Beal Leaf represents purification of the soul.  2) Vermilion paste (Chandan) – Applying chandan on Shiva Linga after washing the Linga represents good feature. Chandan is inseparable part of Worshipping Lord Shiva. 3) Food items - Food items such as rice and fruits are offered to the Lord to ensure a long life and fulfillment of desires.  4) Incense (Dhoop batti) - Incense sticks are lit before Lord Shiva to be blessed with wealth and prosperity.  5) Lamp (Diyo) - The lighting of Cotton handmade batti , lamp or diyo is believed to be helpful to gain knowledge. 6) Betel leaves (Paan ko patta) – Beatle leaves or Pan ko pat represents satisfaction with maturity. Shiva Puran states, the beat of Damaru revealed the first seven letters of music. Those notes are source of language too. Shiva is inventor of notes of music Sa, Re, Ga, Ma Pa, Dha, Ni. He is worshiped as inventor of language on his birthday too. The Shiva linga is washed with Pancha kavya (mixture of five products of cow) and Panchamatrit (mixture of five sweet things). Pancha kavya includes cow dung, cow urine, milk, Curd and Ghee. Panchamrit includes Cow milk, Yogurt, Honey, Sugar and Ghee. In front of the Shiva Linga Kalash (Medium size vessel with small neck) filled with mixed water and milk is set. The neck of the Kalash is tied with white and red piece of cloth. Flower, mango leaves, peeple leaves, beal leaves are kept inside the kalash. Mantras are chanted to worship Lord Shiva. Shiva devotees observe whole day and night fasting. Shiva Linga pooja is done in the night by chanting mantras, offering Beal leaf and pouring water on the linga. Fireplace is set in avenues and in temples at night to make Lord Shiva warm.  Children go in search of wood singing “Shivaji lai jado bhayo aago deu”. (Shivaji is feeling cold, give some fire).  In villages and towns big logs are burnt in places and people sing Shiva bhajans the whole night.  Pashupatinath is the biggest temple of lord shiva In Nepal. In Shivaratri Pashupatinatha temple has a big possession. Hindu devotees from all over Nepal and India visit Pashupatinath.  Large number of Shadus come to Pashupatinath. Different types of Shadus can be seen around Pashapupati and its surroundings.   The shadus are covered with bhibhuti (Ashes). The Shadhus are said to have mastered the pain of heat, cold and sufferings and have devoted their life to Lord Shiva. They stand naked blessing the devotees. They smoke weeds as a divine gift of Lord Shiva. Lord Shiva is the one who enjoys taking bhis(Poison), bhang, Dhatooro (jimson Weeds).   There is always a big fair and market set around Pashupati temple area in Shiva Ratri. Large number of people are seen visiting the temple. People are seen buying things. Announcements, music, dances, sadhus, markets, and large number of tourist make Shivaratri more fun.
