Maha Shivratri 2027 kab hai?
Maha Shivratri 2027 mein 6 March, Shanivar ko hai — Phalgun Krishna Chaturdashi, Bhagwan Shiv ki mahaan raat. Maanyata hai ki isi raat Shiv-Parvati ka vivah hua tha; bhakt din bhar vrat rakhte hain, raat ke chaar prahar mein Shivling ka abhishek karte hain aur jaagran karte hain.
Katha aur parampara
Maha Shivratri Bhagwan Shiv ki sabse badi raat hai, jo Phalgun maas ke Krishna paksha ki Chaturdashi ko aati hai (Amanta paddhati mein ise Magh Krishna Chaturdashi kehte hain). Har mahine ki Krishna Chaturdashi masik Shivratri hoti hai, lekin yeh raat 'maha' hai — isi raat ke saath kai kathayein judi hain.
Sabse prasiddh katha Shiv-Parvati vivah ki hai. Maanyata hai ki Mata Parvati ki kathor tapasya ke baad isi raat Shiv aur Shakti ka milan hua. Isiliye kai jagah Shivratri par Shiv ki baraat nikalti hai aur mandiron mein vivah ka utsav manaya jaata hai. Doosri katha Lingodbhav ki hai: Brahma aur Vishnu mein shreshthata ko lekar vivaad hua, tab unke beech agni ka ek anant stambh prakat hua jiska na aadi mila na ant. Wahi jyotirlinga Shiv ka roop tha — aur maanyata hai ki yeh isi raat hua.
Shivratri ki puja raat ke chaar prahar mein ki jaati hai. Har prahar mein Shivling ka jal, doodh, dahi, ghee aur shahad se abhishek hota hai, aur bilva patra, dhatura, aak ke phool aur bhasm arpit kiye jaate hain. Bhakt din bhar vrat rakhte hain aur raat bhar jaagran karte hain — 'Om Namah Shivaya' aur Mahamrityunjaya mantra ka jaap, bhajan aur Shiv katha ke saath. Ujjain, Varanasi, Somnath aur saare jyotirlingon par is raat laakhon shraddhalu darshan ke liye aate hain.
Shivratri ka arth sirf vrat nahi, jaagna bhi hai — andhere ki raat mein apne andar ke Shiv ko jagaana. Isiliye ise aatm-chintan aur dhyaan ki raat bhi kaha gaya hai.
Kaise manayein
- Subah snan karke Shiv vrat ka sankalp lein; din bhar phalahaar ya nirjala vrat rakhein.
- Shivling par jal, doodh, dahi, ghee, shahad aur Gangajal se abhishek karein.
- Bilva patra, dhatura, aak ke phool, chandan aur bhasm arpit karein.
- Raat ke chaar prahar mein puja karein aur 'Om Namah Shivaya' ka jaap karein.
- Raat bhar jaagran karke Shiv katha, bhajan ya Mahamrityunjaya mantra ka paath karein.
- Agle din subah snan aur puja ke baad vrat ka parana karein.
Maha Shivratri ke upay
- Shivling par 108 bilva patra 'Om Namah Shivaya' bolte hue arpit karein.
- Mahamrityunjaya mantra ka 108 baar jaap karein — aarogya ke liye ise vishesh maana jaata hai.
- Kaccha doodh aur Gangajal milakar Shivling ka abhishek karein.
- Shivratri ke din zaroorat-mand logon ko bhojan ya vastra daan karein.
