Happy Maha Shivratri 2020 Wishes Images, Messages, Status, Photos, Quotes: Maha Shivratri, which literally means “great night of Shiva”, is a day that venerates Lord Shiva, an important deity in Hindu culture. The Hindu festival is largely celebrated in India as well as in Nepal.

According to Puranas, Shivratri commemorates the day Shiva saved the world from the pot of poison that emerged during the great mythical churning of the ocean called Samudra Manthan. On this day, devotees observe a fast and visit Shiva temples across the country, which is believed to bring them good luck. Pujas are performed in the late evening and milk is offered to the Shivaling.

At some temples, cultural programmes are organised as well.

For this auspicious day, we have compiled greetings to be shared with your loved ones.
