Lord Shiva and mother Parvati were married on Mahashivaratri. On the occasion of Maha Shivaratri, devotees try their best to please Bhole Shankar. Amidst this joy, most of the devotees do not forget to consume cannabis as Baba's offerings. But you will be surprised to know that the mention of Bhole Baba to cannabis is neither mentioned in the scriptures nor in the Vedas and Puranas. Along with this, according to the Chairman of Sarvopari Baba Kashi Vishwanath Temple Trust Council in Dwadash Jyotirlinga, cannabis has no place in Shiva Puja Aradhana. This is just a misdemeanor and also harmful for the Deity. Despite this, according to the official figures of Varanasi only, the sale of cannabis increases by 4-5 percent during Shivratri. The sale of cannabis shops doubles here on Shivratri.

Apart from this, Ashok Dwivedi, President of Kashi Vishwanath Temple Trust Council, said that we want to say that the tradition of pandas, priests and other devotees are following cannabis in the worship of Lord Kashi Vishwanath and other Shiva temples of the country. It is not even mentioned in our Vedic and mythological rituals. At the same time, even Akshat, Dakshina and Bhang are not used in Shoddopachara Puja, but if someone had the habit of eating Yat Bhakshitam, Tat Niveditam, that is, he started the habit of offering it to Shivalinga. Just like a goat is sacrificed in Kamakhya. Whoever had the habit of eating has also become a habit of offering it. With this, Ashok Dwivedi says, 'It has been 35 years, I have performed thousands of sacrifices in rituals, but it is not written anywhere that this mantra will make cannabis. Season fruit can be offered.

But there is no mention of giving away. Apart from this, people have made it an ethos. '' While making serious allegations against the priests of the Vishwanath temple, Ashok Dwivedi said that the priests who are addicted to cannabis at the time of worship in the temple offer cannabis balls. We overlooked it, but then later, after pouring milk, water, mungrel and cannabis in a glass of 10 rupees, thousands of glasses started climbing on Baba Vishwanath and the pandas and priests did not stop it. With this, according to Karunendra Singh, District Excise Officer of Varanasi, during the Shivratri festival in Varanasi, the sale of portion increases by 4-5 percent and the total cannabis consumption of Benaras in the year is 48724 kg. At the same time, the cannabis shopkeeper Ramesh told that cannabis is a medicine and it is Prasad of Kashi Vishwanath ji. With this, its sales are highest in Varanasi in the whole country. Most commonly hemp is sold on Holi and Shivaratri.
