Hindu mythology is full of interesting Vedic tales. One such legend we narrated at Vedic Story about the Sawan Shivratri in Hinduism. However, today we are discussing why Sawan Month is important in Hinduism. What is the significance, and should devotees observe the religion fasting or vrat?
Before we start narrating the significance of Sawan Shivratri month, let’s inform you that the Sawan began on July 22 and it will end on August 19.
What Are the Important Timings of Sawan 2024?
Sawan is the most important month in Hinduism and the Panchang Calendar.
It is the sacred month of Sawan, the month of rain, religious fasting, fertility, and soul purification.
Sawan month is a month of Lord Shiva that lasts for a full lunar cycle and starts Ashadha Purnima. However, the month is also known as the Shravan and Kawar Shivratri or Kawar Yatra. It began on 22nd July, Monday, and will end on 19th August, Monday. It lasts for 1 month, and this year the festival is going to last for 29 days.
What is the significance of the Sawan Shivratri Vrat or festival?
Sawan 2024 fast has special meaning and space in Hinduism. Sawan Sonwar Vrat is a rite that unmarried girls perform for getting grooms with qualities of Lord Shiva.
Goddess Parvati also performed Sawan Shivratri to get married with Lord Shiva in the month of Sawan. Thereafter, it became a ritual for Indian women to fast in Sawan month.
Indian mythology and sacred texts of Shiva Purana narrates that whoever keeps the fast in Sawan month on Mondays, Lord Shiva will bless them and fulfill the wishes.
Every Monday, devotees observe the fast throughout the day without eating food or water and pray to Lord Mahadev.
What Are the Rituals Devotees Can Perform During Sawan 2024 Month?
Throughout the sacred Sawan month 2024, devotees of Lord Shiva can pray by performing some rituals that not only clean the devotees internally but also bring happiness into their lives.
Kanwar Yatra
Kanwar Yatra is a festival that devotees perform by going to Haridwar and bringing holy Ganga water barefoot. This pilgrimage yatra signifies the cascading of Goddess Ganga from heaven into the life of Lord Shiva to cool down his poison.
Fasting
Many people in Hinduism perform fasts, the Sawan Somwar Vrat, throughout the month. They don’t consume food and water until the evening and after the prayer of Lord Shiva.
Tumblr media
Shiva Lingam Abhishek
Devotees in Sawan month perform rituals and rites that cool down Lord Shiva and bless them with prosperity and happiness. They bathe Shiva Linga with water, milk, honey, datura, vel patra, and flowers. This ritual signifies the purification of devotees.
Chanting Mantras
Devotees chant the Shiva mantras, especially the Maha Mrityunjaya Mantra in Sawan. It is believed that whoever chants the mantra gets protection from Lord Shiva himself and is blessed with long life.
What Are the Other Festivals Falling in the Month of Sawan?

Let’s find out some of the most auspicious festivals and Vrat fall in this month.
Shravan Shivratri: This festival falls in the Krishna Paksha of Sawan month. Devotees of Lord Shiva perform fasts and perform puja to the blessings of Mahadev.
Nag Panchami: It falls on the fifth day, Panchami of the Shukla Paksha. People worship snakes in this festival to get protection from snake bites.

Guru Purnima 2023: Celebrating the Sacred Bond Between Guru and Disciple
Tumblr media
Guru Purnima is a holy festival that is observed in India and several other countries like Nepal, Bhutan to pay respect and show appreciation for spiritual guides, mentors, and gurus. The word “Guru Purnima” comes from the Sanskrit language, where “guru” stands for “teacher” or “guide,” and “purnima” is used to describe the full moon day.
Guru Purnima has a long history and is very significant in terms of both history and culture. The custom of paying respect to gurus and spiritual teachers has centuries-old roots in many different civilizations.
This day is advantageous to meditate and practice yoga sadhana as it is believed to strengthen one’s spiritual practise and establish a connection with higher consciousness. The spiritual importance of the day magnifies the advantages of these techniques, encouraging inner change and bringing one’s existence into alignment.
When is Guru Purnima?
Guru Purnima is celebrated on a full moon day during the Ashadha month (June–July) in accordance with the Hindu lunar calendar. The celebration this year will take place on July 3, 2023.
Guru Purnima Muhurat :
Why is Guru Purnima Celebrated?
Guru Purnima festival holds significance beyond the realms of spiritual teachings. Along with the traditional practises, greetings, messages, and presents between gurus and followers have become customary during the modern era.
Also known as Vyasa Purnima, Veda Vyasa the author of the Hindu epic, Mahabharata, was born on this day. Shri Mahadev Acharya, Shri Ramanuja Acharya, are considered the greatest gurus in Hinduism. Because it is believed that on this day, Gautam Buddha gave his first sermon at Sarnath, the Buddhist also honour him by celebrating Guru Purnima.
A day of great spiritual significance, it emphasises the value of the guru-disciple bond. It serves as a reminder to respect the advice and lessons learned from our mentors and to foster a mindset of continuous learning and improvement.
There are various reasons why Guru Purnima is observed, and each one emphasises the importance and significance of this auspicious day.
The Guru – Disciple Relationship :
The guru-disciple relationship has been cherished for ages and it is not limited only to that. It includes all the teachers and mentors who have made a significant contribution to moulding our lives. It’s the time to acknowledge them who have provided direction, and inspiration in various facets of life. By honouring them, we recognize the invaluable contributions they have made and the impact they have had on our personal growth.
Expressing Gratitude and Reverence :
The Guru Purnima celebration provides a beautiful platform for disciples to express their deep gratitude and reverence towards their gurus. On this blessed day, the disciples rise early and perform rituals in tribute to their teachers. Flowers, incense, and other sacred items are offered during puja, a traditional worship practise, as a sign of the disciple’s devotion and appreciation. By expressing gratitude, the student not only deepens their relationship with their guru but also develops humility and appreciation in themselves.
Self-reflection and Renewal :
During this day, disciples reflect on the teachings of the gurus and renew their commitment to the path of learning and growth. It’s time to review the guru’s insightful advice and apply it to everyday life. Disciples congregate in places of worship and learning, where they hear sermons, take part in discussions, and perform devotional acts. These activities offer a venue for expanding knowledge, self – reflection.
Celebration of Learning and Knowledge :
Guru Purnima honours learning and knowledge in general. It serves as a reminder of the value of education—spiritual and otherwise—in moulding people and civilizations. The festival promotes a long-lasting sense of humility, open-mindedness, and curiosity when it comes to learning.
Astrological Significance of Guru Purnima :
Astrologically, Guru Purnima holds significant importance due to the alignment of celestial bodies. The festival falls on the full moon day (Purnima), which is considered highly auspicious. Astrologers claim that during Guru Purnima, the moon remains in both the Venus– and Jupiter-ruled Purvashadha nakshatra and the house of Sagittarius.
Our emotions and thoughts are supposed to be governed by the moon. Hence, during Guru Purnima, the relationship between the heart and mind is emphasized and gurus tend to nurture this connection, enabling us to develop a nature that is both moral and pragmatic.

why call your blog "learn religion" when you only post christian drivel? You know that humans have created far more than just the one fake god. Seriously, look...
https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/your-brain-food/202107/why-do-humans-keep-inventing-gods-worship
Tumblr media
If your fake god were real, why does it need humans to speak for it at all? Doesn't seem very all-poweful to me, but who cares - your god and all the others are fictional.
Tumblr media
write that down, and maybe stop proselytizing, after all, your own fictional book tells you to pray privately, doesn't it?
First thing first, I named my blog "learn religion" because I want to cover every major religions of the world and first I choose "bible" (there is reason I choose it first) and later I will cover one by one in a hierarchy.
I was also just like you and always argue these questions with others. But, I didn't got my answers, so I myself started reading and tried (still trying) to understand these scriptures.
Next, so, Before asking this thing 👇, (I am assuming you have already read and understood all major religions' scriptures [specially Gita])
Tumblr media
You must first read major religion's scriptures and Indian hindu puranas (must read) which most specifically are spritualistic (if you do meditation, then you would know what I am talking about) not materialistic - as you are asking for existence/evidence.
Now, let me tell a story with it's actual meaning,
In Hindu puranas, there is a story of Chandra [in reality - moon] (also known as Chandrama) is the moon god. According to the Puranas, Chandra is married to the 27 Nakshatras (lunar mansions - As you already knows in a month, moon goes bright to total dark), who are the daughters of Daksha Prajapati and his wife Panchajani (also known as Prasuti). These 27 Nakshatras are significant in Vedic astrology and are associated with the moon's movement through the celestial sphere. The names of Chandra's 27 wives are:
Ashwini
Bharani
Krittika
Rohini
Mrigashira
Ardra
Punarvasu
Pushya
Ashlesha
Magha
Purva Phalguni
Uttara Phalguni
Hasta
Chitra
Swati
Vishakha
Anuradha
Jyeshtha
Mula
Purva Ashadha
Uttara Ashadha
Shravana
Dhanishta
Shatabhisha
Purva Bhadrapada
Uttara Bhadrapada
Revati
Chandra, the moon god, was married to the 27 daughters of Daksha Prajapati, each representing a Nakshatra or lunar mansion. Chandra was particularly fond of one of his wives, Rohini, and spent most of his time with her, neglecting the other 26 wives. This favoritism caused great distress among his other wives, who felt neglected and complained to their father, Daksha.
Angry with Chandra's behavior, Daksha cursed him to lose his luster and gradually fade away, which would mean his eventual demise. As the curse took effect, Chandra began to wane, losing his brightness and strength. This decline affected not only him but also the cosmos, as the moon's phases are crucial for various natural and astrological phenomena.
Desperate to save himself and restore balance, Chandra sought help from Lord Shiva, the supreme deity known for his benevolence and powers. Chandra performed severe penance and prayed to Lord Shiva, seeking his mercy and intervention. Pleased with Chandra's devotion, Lord Shiva decided to partially alleviate the curse.
Lord Shiva decreed that Chandra would not completely lose his luster but would undergo a cyclical process of waning and waxing. Thus, Chandra would decrease in brightness for half of the month (waning phase) and then gradually increase in brightness for the other half (waxing phase). This cyclical pattern allowed Chandra to regain his strength and shine periodically.
To honor this divine intervention, Chandra is often depicted adorning Lord Shiva's matted hair as a crescent moon, symbolizing the waxing and waning phases. This story explains the moon's phases, from going dark (Amavasya, new moon) to becoming bright again (Purnima, full moon), reflecting Chandra's enduring connection with his 27 wives and the cosmic order.
Now, you are asking, how illogical, not in this world can marry 27 wives 😂 (Materialistic perspective of seeing this story). But story of Chandra and his 27 wives, the Nakshatras, involves themes of love, jealousy, and divine intervention, explaining the moon's waxing and waning phases (spritualistic, moral, and a easy rememberable & sustainable storical form that even a 4 year child can remember to sustain knowledge with it).
Basically, these Nakshatras are considered the lunar mansions, and each one represents a segment of the moon's path through the zodiac, playing a vital role in Vedic astrology and horoscopes.
So, try to understand, these scriptures were created 1000s of years ago for just as a smooth guide (guilt, hate and violence FREE) to living your life easily in a civilization (ultimately for sustainability). That time science wasn't there to talk factually on materialistic existance/evidence and this (illogical) way was the only one to make people understand things and choose the right path in a storical form. So, ultimately, these illogical scriptures are only the reason you are existing here and arguing this materialistic logical (but spritualistic illogical) question (sustainability).
If you asking, where are those 10,000 year ago swords and shields, then with time it got decayed and gone, BUT by the atoms and sub atomic particles from which that swords and shields were made of are still exists somewhere in this universe and undoubtedly SCIENCE believe on this (by the law - energy and matter neither be created nor be destroyed) [so now don't you agree with this?]. Now, if you are asking me, these scriptures talk a lot about super human abilities (that Indians generally call it SIDDHI). So in the answer, To be real, those maximum of the abilities were real (read indian all 18 puranas TO KNOW ABOUT) and you can also acquire some of these, but you must have that level of guts and unfearness.
If you still want the answer you asked, I want to give you from Indian Gita Mahapuran. Regarding the notion of God needing humans to speak for it, the Gita explains that divine knowledge and guidance are often disseminated through avatars (divine incarnations) and enlightened beings to help humanity understand and follow the path of righteousness. This doesn't negate the omnipotence of God but rather showcases the compassionate aspect of the divine, making spiritual wisdom accessible to all.
Furthermore, the Gita advocates for sincere and private devotion, aligning with the idea of internalized worship and personal connection with the divine. For instance, in Chapter 9, Verse 22, Krishna (a God) says, "To those who are constantly devoted and who worship Me with love, I give the understanding by which they can come to Me."
Ultimately, different scriptures and religious traditions offer various perspectives on the nature of divinity, the role of humans in spiritual matters, and the ways to connect with the divine. The Bhagavad Gita encourages a personal, devoted relationship with God, emphasizing inner spirituality and moral action.
Basically, your question about god is wrong - "What is god and where is it?", your actual question must be, if god exists, then what are it's/his/her properties, perspective and thinking toward every thing, no matter it is every sinlge living or non-living beings/things (not only us - humans).

Celebrating Guru Purnima: Honoring the Light of Wisdom
Guru Purnima, a day steeped in tradition and reverence, is a significant festival dedicated to honoring our teachers and mentors. Celebrated on the full moon day (Purnima) in the Hindu month of Ashadha (June-July), this day holds immense importance in the spiritual and academic realms.
The word 'Guru' Is derived from the Sanskrit terms ‘Gu’ and ‘Ru,’ meaning darkness and light, respectively. A guru is thus someone who dispels the darkness of ignorance and brings the light of knowledge and wisdom into our lives. Guru Purnima is a time to express our deep gratitude for their guidance, support, and teachings.
Historically, Guru Purnima commemorates the birth of Ved Vyasa, the sage who authored the Mahabharata and compiled the Vedas, the cornerstone of Hindu philosophy and spirituality. It is also the day when Lord Shiva, the Adiyogi, became the first guru and began imparting his profound knowledge to the Saptarishis, the seven sages.
In modern times, Guru Purnima transcends religious boundaries, celebrating all forms of mentorship and learning. It is an occasion for students to pay respect to their teachers, for disciples to honor their spiritual guides, and for professionals to acknowledge the mentors who shape their careers.
On this auspicious day, devotees often visit temples, participate in prayers and rituals, and offer gifts to their gurus. Many also engage in reflective practices, contemplating the lessons learned and the wisdom gained from their mentors.
Guru Purnima serves as a reminder of the pivotal role that teachers and mentors play in our lives. Their unwavering dedication and selfless efforts inspire us to strive for excellence, cultivate virtues, and pursue our dreams with confidence.
As we celebrate Guru Purnima, let us take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude to those who have guided us, enriched our lives, and helped us become better individuals. May we continue to seek knowledge, spread wisdom, and honor the eternal bond between the guru and the disciple.
Happy Guru Purnima!
