News Topical, Digital Desk : Sawan 2025: The holy month of Sawan is dedicated to Lord Shiva. The Kanwar Yatra begins in this month. Also, Mahadev is anointed with special things.

There is a religious belief that by worshipping Mahadev, all the sorrows of the devotee are removed and happiness and prosperity increase. But do you know why Lord Shiva resides on earth during the month of Sawan ? If you do not know, then come let us tell you about it.

According to the legend, once King Daksha organized a huge Yagya. He invited everyone for the Yagya, but did not invite Lord Shiva. When Maa Parvati came to know about this, she also insisted on going to the Yagya, but Mahadev refused to go. After this, Maa Parvati did not listen to Mahadev and she went to attend the Yagya.

Reaching there, he saw that there was a place for everyone in the yagya, but not for Mahadev and King Daksha insulted Lord Shiva. Seeing this, Mother Parvati got angry and jumped into the yagya fire and gave up her life. She vowed that whenever she would be born again, she would accept Mahadev as her husband. According to religious belief, since then, in the month of Sawan, Mahadev comes to earth and controls the universe. In this month, Shiva resides in Kankhal in the form of Daksheshwar.

 After this, Maa Parvati took second birth as the daughter of Mata Sati and King Himalaya. She did penance in the month of Sawan to get Mahadev as her husband. Lord Shiva was pleased with her penance and accepted Maa Parvati as his wife. According to religious belief, it is because of Maa Parvati's penance that Mahadev loves the month of Sawan.
