Shivratri, particularly Maha Shivratri, is a significant Hindu festival dedicated to Lord Shiva, one of the principal deities of Hinduism. The term “Shivratri” means “The Night of Shiva,” and it is observed on the 14th night of the waning moon in the month of Phalguna (February–March), according to the Hindu lunar calendar.
Maha Shivratri emphasizes self-discipline, devotion, and the quest for liberation (moksha). It serves as a reminder of Lord Shiva’s attributes: compassion, selflessness, and detachment.
