About Maha Shivaratri

Maha Shivaratri, the great night of Shiva, is the most important of the monthly Shivaratris. It falls on the fourteenth lunar day of the waning moon (Krishna Chaturdashi) in Phalguna, which is called Magha in the Amanta calendar used in western and southern India. Devotees fast, stay awake through the night and worship Shiva, usually in the form of the Shivalinga.
