Sawan month has started with the end of the full moon of Ashadh month. Worshipping Lord Shiva during the month of Sawan gives a lot of benefit to the devotees. This month is very dear to Lord Shiva. Sawan holds special significance in all the months. Let's know from these mythological facts about the importance of the month of Sawan
According to the mythological belief, Lord Shiva, the lord of the three worlds, had descended on earth and visited his in-laws in the month of Sawan and was welcomed there through Arghya and Jalabhishek.
There is also a belief that the grace of Lord Shiva was attained by Markandeya, son of Markandu Rishi for long life in the month of Shravan itself, due to which the god of death, Yamraj, could not do anything in front of the mantra powers.
There is also a popular mythological story that the sea was churned in the month. After this, the Halahal venom was released, which Bholenath had ingested, so that the whole creation could be protected. Shiva is also known as Neelkanth as he drank poison. Because after consuming poison, Lord Shiva's throat became blue. During this time, all the Gods together offered him water. Therefore, offering water to Shivling also has a special significance.
In 'Shivpuran' it is also mentioned that Lord shiva is water itself. Therefore, the best results of worship are received in the form of their consecration from water.
