SIVARATRI

Festival Page |  Diwali|  Ganesha Chathurthi| Rama Navami | Sivaratri | Vishu

 

Among the devout Hindus, Sivaratri, Sanskrit: "Great Night of Siva", the most important sectarian festival of the year for devotees of the Hindu god Siva, which falls in the month of February, is a very important day. It is a day especially for the womenfolk. The 14th day of the dark half of each lunar month is specially sacred to Siva, but when it occurs in the month of Magha (January-February) and, to a lesser extent, in the month of Phalguna (February-March), it is a day of particular rejoicing. The preceding day the participant observes a fast and at night a vigil during which a special worship of the linga (symbol of Siva) is performed.

A complete fast, meditation, prayers and offerings to Lord Siva mark the occasion. On this auspicious day is celebrated throughout the length and breadth of Kerala. The river town of Aluva plays host to the great Maha Sivarathri festival. Devotees gather on the sand-banks of the river Periyar and they keep awake the whole night, fasting and meditating. In the small hours of the morning, accompanied by full-throated chants, they plunge into the river, and then emerge to offer prayers. The fair which grows around this festival is popular with people of all persuasions. The richly illuminated sand banks with its dream-like reflections in the river waters present an enchanting sight.
