Overview
Maha Shivratri Puja for families in VV Puram
Maha Shivratri falls on the Chaturdashi of Krishna Paksha in the month of Phalguna (Magha in the amanta calendar), usually in February or March. Devotees observe a fast and worship Lord Shiva through the night, traditionally in four parts called prahars, with the Nishita Kaal around midnight considered especially holy.
VV Puram, short for Visveswarapuram, is one of the older planned areas of south Bangalore, lying between Basavanagudi, Chamarajpet and the Lalbagh West Gate. Its evening food street near Sajjan Rao Circle draws people from all over the city.
ॐ त्र्यम्बकं यजामहे सुगन्धिं पुष्टिवर्धनम्।
उर्वारुकमिव बन्धनान्मृत्योर्मुक्षीय माऽमृतात्॥
Oṁ tryambakaṁ yajāmahe sugandhiṁ puṣṭivardhanam, urvārukam iva bandhanān mṛtyor mukṣīya mā'mṛtāt.
