A night of natural energy
According to ancient Indian yogic science, the 14th day of every lunar month (Shivratri) is believed to have a natural upsurge of energy in humans. Maha Shivratri, however, which falls in February-March, is considered the most potent. The positioning of the northern hemisphere on this night is said to create a surge of energy within us, pushing us towards a spiritual peak. To harness this natural phenomenon, the tradition of a nightlong festival was established.
One of the key aspects of this festival is staying awake with your spine erect throughout the night. With this practice, it is believed, that you can tap into positive energy emanating from planetary alignments. This energy can gradually transform you into a more spiritually inclined person, aligning your body, mind, and soul.
The night of Maha Shivratri is more than a celebration, it is also about overcoming darkness and ignorance in life and the world. Immerse yourself in the sacred stillness of night, as the air is charged with the energy of devotees reciting prayers, chanting hymns, and partaking in an all-night vigil, creating an atmosphere pulsating with divine vibrations.
