Maha Shivaratri, the night of Lord Shiva, is approaching (March 7). This year Maha Shivaratri is more auspicious as it has fallen on Monday, which is a day dedicated specially to worship Lord Shiva. Every year the premises of Pashupatinath is thronged with devotees from within and outside the country. Pashupati Area Development Trust (PADT) has been managing the flow of devotees and this year it is believed around 12-lakh devotees will be at Pashupatinath to offer their prayers on Maha Shivaratri.
It is the feeling of giving and receiving blessing from Lord Shiva that these groups have been volunteering during the festival. “It is our privilege to work for the devotees during Maha Shivaratri. For us it is similar to the biggest Hindu festival Dashain. We are prepared to serve food for around 40,000 devotees on the day of Maha Shivaratri. Our serving opens on March 6 till midnight,” said Vinod Lila, President of Maa Brahmayani Sewa Mandal.
