Lord Shiva
Mahashivratri is celebrated with much fervor across India. Devotees of Lord Shiva observe fast on the festival and worship him. While praying to Lord Shiva on Shivratri, devotees offer multiple things on Shiva Lingam like Bel Patra, Dhatura, flowers and milk among other things. However, it is said that Tuli or Basil leaves should not be offered to Lord Shiva.Â
According to a story in Shiva Purana, there was a demon named Jalandar. The evil demon was blessed with a boon that empowered him until his wife, Vrinda, lost her sanctity. He had troubled many Gods and Goddesses but because of his powers, none of them could hurt him. In order to defeat Jalandar, they reached out to Lord Vishnu and Shiva for help. To solve their problems, Lord Vinshu disguised himself as Jalandar and met the latter s wife. As soon as Vrinda touched his feet, the boon was lifted and Lord Shiva killed the demon.Â
