The Exceptional Maha Shivratri of Banaras

Varanasi is the oldest and most talked about city according to the widely accepted Sanatana or Hindu dharma. It is believed that lord Shiva resides in the city in the highest of his exalted form of jyotirlinga known as Kashi Vishwanath in Varanasi. Everyone can feel the spiritual ablaze in their bodies when sitting beside the holy Ganges or presenting their soul before the great lord Shiva.

The essence of Mahashivratri

As the spring approaches, this spiritual consciousness of this city is at its peak, to celebrate the one and only day of Mahashivratri. Traditionally this festival falls in the Phalguna month of Shukla Paksha according to Hindu calendar. For India this day is a festival, but for Banaras it is much more than just immense emotions. The city is glazed up, and completely immersed in energy from head to toe. It is believed that this festival dates back to one thousand years which holds the legend that this day is the day when Mata Parvati was united to Lord Shiva in the holy constitution of marriage.

The allegiance of the Mahashivratri Mahotsav

On the day of Mahashivratri celebration, devotees recreate the magical wedding scene of Shiva and Parvati from the Shiva Purana. A three-day massive Mahotsav is held in the city with the major attraction being the Shiv Baraat (wedding procession of lord Shiva). This festival is celebrated during the dark fortnight or the night without the moon. People walk for more than five hours in mad devotion and spirituality immersing completely in festive revelry, dances, intense music which results in impassioned ecstatic devotional spirit.

The magnificient Rudrabhishek at the Kashi Vishwanath Temple

Apart from this procession, the day of Mahashivratri also marks the day of the grandeur of the Rudrabhishek in Kashi Vishwanath Dham. Bhaang, Dhatura leaves, Bael leaves, Coconut and other fruits are most importantly offered to the greatest lord Shiva on his wedding day. The Shiva Lingam is profusely poured with milk which gives out the essence of bathing Lord Shiva with milk. The sight of the greatest Rudrabhishek in Kashi Vishwanath temple is a once in a life time feeling of emotions as strong as a rock. The almighty is also immersed in Ganga Jal, curd, ghee and very fragrant flowers to show intense devotion and respect with a heart of faithfulness. Religious hymns are chanted with lively energy and discipline with intensity and in harmony. The fondness and love for lord Shiva is humongous. The Sadyojata, Vamadeva, Aghora, Tatpurusha, and Poorsuktam recitation is done following the offerings to Lord Shiva. Devotees chant the Panchakshara Mantra- Om Namah Shivay. Prayers are also offered to the son of Lord Shiva, Lord Ganesha and Maa Durga, who is believed to be an incarnation of Goddess Parwati. The end of the Rudrabhishek in Kashi Vishwanath Temple is marked by the worship of Shiva Linga with the Maha Aarti and Pushpanjali which means the offering of flowers.

The wide belief lying behind this states that, it sends a feeling that the devotees will be liberated and freed from the cycle of birth and rebirth and attain true salvation or a feeling of Nirvana. Rudrabhishek in Kashi Vishwanath Temple is widely believed to please Lord Shiva and obtain his blessings in the purest form possible. It is considered the path to inner satisfaction and bliss after the devotee is blessed with protection, good health along with materialistic and spiritual abundance.
