Why is Mahashivratri celebrated ? And a few days later, Mahashivaratri. Shivaratri is celebrated on the krushna chaturdashi of every month. The krushna chaturdashi of Phalguna is the most important. On that day, the northern hemisphere of the earth is in a state when the human body is naturally energetic, when nature takes the person to the peak of spirituality. To take advantage of this, the Mahashivaratri tradition is organized. The one in whom everything lies, is established, or is the shelter of everything is Shiva.
The main purpose of celebrating Maha Shivaratri is to gain spiritual joy by drawing special power from nature. Shivaratri is of special importance for those on the spiritual path. By performing penance to Mahadev, one gets endless joy, patience, perseverance, and proper nourishment. Mahadev is the prince of all-yoga or all-siddhi. Another name for him is Yogishwar or Yogaswar. All senses, philosophy, and knowledge come from him. Mahadev’s vehicle, the bull, is the symbol of Dharma. He is four-legged. When Dharma is four-legged, then it is developed in full glory.
In the yoga tradition, Shiva is worshipped not as a god but as the first Guru. Shiva is the first Guru from whom knowledge originated.

On this day, one can attain supreme bliss by spending time in meditation and worshipping Shiva. Whether male or female, those who dedicate their mind and soul to Shiva and observe this fast and auspicious fast, their hearts become pure, peaceful, and blissful. Lust and anger are subdued.
