Significance Of Mahashivratri
Devotees traditionally observe Mahashivratri by offering milk and flowers to the Shivling. The festival coincides with the darkest night of the year, believed to generate a surge of energy within the human system due to specific planetary alignments. This often leads to devotees staying awake throughout the night in prayer and meditation.
