Om Shiva Shambo!
Namaskar to all Divine souls,
Once again that auspicious day is coming. February 20th is a special Maha Shivaratri. It is a day to offer Lord Shiva all that is sacred. One may chant, sing His praises, bathe a Lingam or idol, adorn Him with flowers and offer all kind of sweets and vegetable dishes.
During this time Lord Shiva is at the pinnacle of his presence in the material Earth plane. We should all put all our thoughts and focus in prayers for the peace in the World, peace within and without. Maha Sivarathiri, is the great night of Shiva, when His devotees are reminded of the time when He walked on earth and in heaven. It is a time to merge oneself in the infinite light.

Driving from Mother Pratyangira’s temple, our heads were reeling. We were all in awe of how the Mother created a Lila (Divine play or illusion) and brought us to Her abode. We continued our drive and passed many rice patty fields with busy workers, small roadside villages with smokey straw huts and dense green jungles. Raghudas, sat in the back of the SUV and absorbed the passing sights. We passed several road signs and suddenly he saw a village name that he recognized. Impossible, he thought, he had never been here before. Just then, Ashok commented to Swami and Amma and they had a short discussion in Tamil. After a moment the car slowed and Amma informed us that we were going to Parangippetai, and that many years ago it was called Porto Novo. Raghudas realized he had read about this village and immediately recalled it to be the birthplace of Sri Mahavatar Babaji.
