MODES OF SIVA PUJA

Fortunately, this season is quite congenial for celebration  of this annual festival. It is at this time, Nature sets up an exquisite background  for its performance. The tranquility  that reigns supreme due to the passing of harvest  season enables all - farmers, labourers, officials etc, to celebrate  it with utmost zest. And -as the rainy season being past, the azure sky looks lovely and colourful as the mild rays of the Sun caress them with tenderness. The lilting breeze enkindles sublime thoughts charged with devotion and serenity. Severity of anything is totally by its conspicuous absence. In this salubrious  air, devoid of the excesses of heat or cold, people feel like  taking the pleasure of jagarana -  keeping awake the whole night and spending in congregational bhajan, or listening to Sivalilas expounded through  kalakshepas or speeches. Fasting on this day brims enviable merits.
