Maha Shivaratri Greetings For Hindu Devotees and Students

Maha Shivaratri Greetings: Maha Shivaratri is a Hindu festival celebrated annually in reverence of the Lord Shiva. It is the day Shiva was married to the Goddess Parvati. Here we have collection of greeting cards for this occasion…

Maha Shivaratri Festival or the “The Night of Shiva” is celebrated with devotion and religious fervor in honor of Lord Shiva, one of the deities of Hindu Trinity. Shivaratri falls on the moonless 14th night of the new moon in the Hindu month of Phalgun, which corresponds to the month of March- March in English Calendar. Celebrating the festival of Shivaratri devotees observe day and night fast and perform ritual worship of Shiva Lingam to appease Lord Shiva.

Maha Shivaratri Greetings For Students

Maha Shivratri happens only once every year, in February or March, which is the end of winter and the beginning of spring and summer and is considered auspicious by the Hindu community as it is believed to be the night of convergence of Shiva and Shakti whom the devotees consider as the embodiment of love, power and oneness. According to Hindu mythology, it is believed that Shiva and Mata Parvati got married on the occasion of Maha Shivratri.

While Shiva signifies Purusha – which is mindfulness, Maa Parvati signifies Prakriti – which is nature. The union of this consciousness and energy promotes creation and the festival of Mahashivratri is also a reminder of overcoming darkness and ignorance in life.
