| Mahashivratri par yaad kiya jata hai Shiv aur Parvati ji ka pavitra divya milan – prem, tapasya aur adhyatmik ekta ka prateek 🔱✨ |
Mahashivratri se judi kai kathayein prachlit hain. Ek lokpriya katha ke anusaar Mata Parvati ne kathor tapasya karke Bhagwan Shiv ko pati roop mein prapt kiya. Unki bhakti se prasann hokar Bhagwan Shiv ne Phalgun Krishna Chaturdashi ko unse vivaah kiya.
Isliye Mahashivratri divya milan aur anant prem ka prateek bhi hai.
