Embracing Inner Peace: Lok Sabha Speaker Hails Lord Shiva as Symbol of Meditation, Renunciation on Maha Shivratri

On the eve of Maha Shivratri, Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla conveyed warm wishes, highlighting that "Lord Shiva is symbol of meditation, renunciation." The message is apt to the spiritual significance of the festival, celebrating Lord Shiva's dual persona as destroyer and transformer. While millions of devotees get set to celebrate this propitious night on Feb 26, 2025, the Speaker's remarks serve as a reminder to adopt Lord Shiva's ideals of self-reflection and peace within. Night vigils, prayers, and fasting greet Maha Shivratri all over India and outside.
