Mahashivratri 2022: Know why Lord Shiva is known as Gangadhar, what it means - One story of Shiva and Ganga, which has been drawn from the Hindu scriptures, tells us more about why Shiva is called Gangadhar.
Mahashivratri, as the name indicates — “the great night of Shiva”— is celebrated in honour of Lord Shiva, the Destroyer in the Hindu Trinity.
Who is Shiva? He is Rudra, the Mighty. He is blue-throated, because he drank the poison (churned from the milky ocean), which otherwise would have destroyed the human race. He is considered both the Creator and Destroyer of men.
Maha Shivratri is celebrated on the chaturthi tithi during the Krishna Paksha of the Magha month which is the 13/14 night of Krishna Paksha in Phalgun month of Hindu calendar. The name refers to the night when Lord Shiva performs heavenly dance. 🙏🏻 Maha Shivratri 2022 Images & Baba Bholenath HD Wallpapers for Free Download Online: Wish Happy Mahashivratri With WhatsApp Stickers, GIF Greetings and Facebook Quotes.
