Shivaratri | Lingodbhavam | Thursday Darshan of Sathya Sai baba - Part 137

Shivaratri literally means ‘the night of Shiva’. Bhagawan says that unlike any other night, this is the night of concentration, dedication and illumination. We know every month is divided into two fortnights. Shivaratri falls on the fourteenth day after the full moon day – the time when the moon is least visible. The moon loses one-sixteenth of its brilliance every day and so on the fourteenth day it has only one-sixteenth of its power. This is significant because the moon is related to the mind. The scriptures declare chandrama manaso jataha (the moon has emerged from the mind). Since the moon is so subdued during this period, Bhagawan says it is that much easy to control the waywardness of the mind; it can be swiftly achieved with sadhana (spiritual effort). This effort can be in many ways, one of them being keeping vigil all night and chanting His name. That is why we do akhanda bhajans, the non-stop bhajan singing. Radio Sai Team
