Masik Shivaratri 2021
Shivaratri is a great festival of convergence of Shiva and Shakti. Each month, Chaturdashi Tithi during Krishna Paksha is known as Masik Shivaratri.
Masik Shivaratri in the month of Magha is known as Maha Shivaratri according to Amavasyant School. However according to Purnimant School Masik Shivaratri in the month of Phalguna is known as Maha Shivaratri. In both schools, it is naming convention of lunar month which differs. However both, Purnimant and Amavasyant Schools, celebrate all Shivaratris including Maha Shivaratri on the same day.
According to Indian Mythology, in the midnight of Maha Shivaratri, Lord Shiva appeared in the form of Linga. Shiva Linga was first worshipped by Lord Vishnu and Lord Brahma. Hence, Maha Shivaratri is known as the birthday of Lord Shiva and devotees worship Shiva Linga during Shivaratri. Shivaratri Vrat is popular since ancient time. In Hindu Puranas, we get references of Shivaratri Vrat. According to scriptures even Goddess Lakshmi, Indrani, Saraswati, Gayatri, Savitri, Sita, Parvati, Rati observed Shivaratri fast.
