Sawan Shivaratri
This year, on July 23, on the day of Sawan Shivaratri, the Muhurta to offer water to Lord Shiva will start from Brahma Muhurta. On this day Brahma Muhurta will be from 4:15 AM to 4:56 AM. From this time, there is a crowd of devotees for the Jalabhishek of Shivling on Shiva temples. From Brahma Muhurta, a program to offer water to Shiva is going on throughout the day. Other deities are not worshiped in Rahukaal, but worshiping Lord Shiva in Rahukaal gives freedom from Kalsarp Dosh. On the day of Sawan Shivaratri, Kanwar travelers especially perform Jalabhishek of Mahadev.
