It marks the night of Shiva's cosmic dance, symbolising the destruction of ignorance and the awakening of spiritual knowledge. Devotees observe fasting, offer prayers, and engage in meditation to seek blessings, inner peace, and strength. It's a time for spiritual reflection and devotion to Lord Shiva,” she says.
She adds, “On this day, the focus is on devotion, purification, and seeking spiritual enlightenment. As a devotee, I make sure to consume only specific foods or abstain from food altogether.”
