Madhuurima Instagram – Maha Shivratri, ‘The great night of Shiva’ the first pic depicts all the symbols of Shiv . This is painted by my mother Nandita Banerjee @whitepeacockhealing It is on this night that Lord Shiva performs his cosmic dance of ‘creation, preservation and destruction’. Shivratri – a night of convergence of Shiva and Shakti, which in essence mean the masculine and feminine energies that balance the world. In Hindu culture, this is a solemn festival that marks the remembrance of ‘overcoming darkness and ignorance in life’. This is also a night reserved for self-reflection and introspection for the purpose of growing and leaving behind all things that hinder our success. #mahashivratri #shiva #shivparvati #harharmahadev #love
