‘Shravan' Begins Today: Special Shivling Initiative At Mankapur Temple
1 2 3 4 Nagpur: The holy month of Shravan, considered especially auspicious by devotees of Lord Shiva, will begin on Friday. While northern India already began observing Shravan on July 11, in Vidarbha, the month starts from the Shravan Shukla Pratipada and will conclude on August 23. This month holds deep religious significance for Hindus, with devotees observing fasts, performing rituals, and worshipping Lord Shiva — especially on Mondays. It is believed that sincere prayers and disciplined worship during this period can fulfil wishes and bring peace, health, and prosperity. Four Shravan Mondays in 2025 will be on July 28, August 4, 11, and 18. A unique spiritual initiative is being launched in Nagpur to mark the beginning of Shravan. Starting July 25, the premises of the ancient Shiv Mandir at Mankapur will host a month-long community event where devotees will create Parthiv Shivlings — small symbolic idols made from purified soil. According to the temple organisers, the aim is to collectively create 71 lakh Parthiv Shivlings between July 25 and August 24, with a daily target of 2.25 lakh Shivlings. The initiative is dedicated to the well-being of humanity, global harmony, and the spiritual upliftment of India. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like TV providers are furious: this gadget gives you access to all channels Techno Mag Learn More Undo "Such a vast undertaking is only possible through public participation," said former mayor Dayashankar Tiwari, one of the event coordinators. "We request every devotee to join in with their family and contribute to this sacred cause. We also urge those connected with social organisations to encourage group participation for maximum spiritual benefit." During Shravan, a significant rush of devotees is expected at several ancient Shiva temples across Nagpur. Prominent among them are the revered Shri Kalyaneshwar Shiv Mandir, the ancient Pataleshwar Temple in Mahal, Butti Mahadev Mandir, Shri Jagruteshwar Mahadev Temple, the Mahadev temple in Balaji Nagar, Manewada, and the Shiv temple at Motibagh Railway Colony. These sacred sites are known for their vibrant Shravan festivities, and thousands of devotees are expected to visit for darshan, abhishek, and Monday rituals. In addition, temples across the city will also organise Shiva Mahapuran recitations, Bhagwat Saptahs, Geeta Pathan, and various other devotional activities, creating a deeply spiritual atmosphere throughout the month.
