Description
Participate in Shravan Maas Maha Puja and get blessings of Spiritual growth, Health, Harmony and Desire Fulfilment.
Shravan Mahina, or Sawan Month or Shravan Maas (4th July to 31th August) is one of the holiest months in a traditional Hindu calendar. All, Mondays or Somvars of Shravan month are specially observed with austerity as these days are replete with Lord Shiva’s blessings. In 2023 this period starts on 4th July and ends on 31th August and Mondays will fall on 17th July, 24th July, 31st July, 7th August , 14th August, 21st August and 28th August.
Legends state that when Sanat Kumars asked Lord Shiva that why is Shravan month dear to Him, he said that Ma Parvati fasted hard in this month to marry Him and hence it became special to Him. It was in Shravan month when Lord Shiva drank the halahal poison that turned His throat blue. To cool Him down, He was offered water and holy liquids by the Devas. The one who does Abhisheka of Lord Shiva in this month burns down his sins forever and gets peace and bliss.
Another narrative is that Markandeya, the son of Markandu Rishi, received the grace of Shiva in the month of Shravan for longevity as He composed the Mahamrityunjaya mantra. Thus, this month devotees fast to receive good health throughout the year.
Also it is said that in this month, Lord Shiva visits his in-laws place and is welcomed with offerings. Thus it is the best time to receive His benevolent grace.
This is the part of the 4 months of Shravan, Badho, Ashwin and Kartik, when Lord Vishnu retires in Yognidra and Lord Shiva takes over the duty of taking care of the creation.
Shiva devotees offer Abhishekam (ritual bathing) to Lord Shiva and pray to Him and meditate to get His blessings for mitigating their karma and cleansing and uplifting the soul. It is said that the one who worships Lord Shiva in the month of holy Shravan is freed from all bondages is propelled on the path of self realisation. He enjoys health, harmony and success in all spheres of life.
