It is believed that Lord Shiva performed the dance of creation, preservation and destruction on this day. He is, therefore, pleased with his favourite delicacies, and the devotees sing songs praising Lord Shiva throughout the day. It is customary for many to stay up the entire night of Mahashivratri, praying to Lord Shiva for their family's wellbeing and prosperity. We hope that this Mahashivratri puts an end to all our sufferings and brings us closer to the path of better days. Happy Mahashivratri 2021!
