Mumbai Temples Gear Up For Maha Shivaratri On February 15
Mumbai: Lord Shiva temples across Mumbai are gearing up to celebrate Maha Shivaratri on Sunday, February 15. Also called The Great Night of Lord Shiva, Maha Shivaratri is one of the most sacred festivals in Hinduism dedicated to Lord Shiva and is observed with deep devotion. It is celebrated on the Chaturdashi Tithi of the Krishna Paksha in the month of Magha, falling on the 14th night of the dark fortnight in Phalguna (February-March), according to the Gregorian calendar. The festival is associated with profound spirituality. It is believed that on this sacred night, Lord Shiva performed a dance representing the cosmic cycles of creation, preservation, and destruction. Another legend highlights the divine union of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati, representing the balance and harmony of cosmic energies, while some see it as the moment Shiva transcended form and became Nishkalabeyond time and space. Devotees observe the day with fasting, many abstaining from food and water as an act of purification, while some consume fruits and milk. Staying awake through the night is a key part of observance, symbolising the overcoming of darkness and ignorance and a movement toward spiritual awareness. Ritual worship includes abhishekam, the ceremonial bathing of the Shiva Linga with milk, honey, ghee, sugar, water, and bilva (Bel) leaves. Each offering holds symbolic meaning and reflects devotion and surrender. Chanting of Om Namah Shivaya continues throughout the night, while temples are adorned with flowers and lights. Mukesh Kanojia from Shree Babulnath Mandir Charities, Babulnath Roadone of the city's prominent Lord Shiva templessaid that the temple will open for darshan at 00:01 midnight on 15 February 2026 until 10:00 pm the next day. Facilities have been provided for devotees to perform water abhisheka. Offering milk, sandalwood, and ashes is prohibited. Special arrangements have been made for VIPs, the disabled, senior citizens, and pregnant women, said Kanojia. Rituals at the temple will be broadcast live. In Matunga, celebrations at Sri Sankara Matham begin with Rudra Homam in the afternoon of February 15, followed by Vasordhaara. The first of the four Yaamas (phases) commences in the evening with Mahanyasa Rudra Japam. Then the Laksharchana with bilva leaves begins, chanting Om Namah Shivaya one lakh times. The night is divided into three Yaamas, during which the Shiva Linga is worshipped with holy water, bilva leaves, sandalwood paste, and other ritual offerings, culminating in the powerful Nishita Kaal meditation and concluding with deeparadhana on the following day. This is the only temple in this area where Mahashivaratri is celebrated in such a grand manner, said the Matham secretary, S. Sivasubramanian. More than 500 devotees stay the full night and participate in the pooja, he said. Commuters Hang Outside Mumbai Local Trains As Delays Continue, Sena UBT Leader Questions Rail Authorities Also Watch: Other temples in Matunga, including the Siva Temple, South Indian Bhajana Samaj, and Sri Marubai Gaondevi Mandir, also conduct special poojas and night-long prayers to mark the occasion.

Sadhguru will guide seekers into deeper receptivity with processes and offerings, including Pancha Bhuta Kriyaa process of purifying the five elements within the human systemand the Yogeshwara Linga Maha Abhishekam, a powerful process to help devotees connect with the Yogeshwara aspect of Shiva, which is about union, inclusivity, and liberation.

Students Lead the Way in Sustainability and Social Responsibility at CS Academy
CS Academy , Coimbatore, in partnership with the Tamil Nadu Electricity Board (TNEB), has recently launched The Energy Conservation Project, a two-month, student-led initiative aimed at promoting responsible energy usage and reducing electricity consumption within the community. Empowering students to lead real change. From energy conservation to community awareness drives, CS Academy nurtures responsible, action-driven citizens The project engages nearly 1,500 students from Grades 4 to 8 across both the CBSE and International (IG) streams, empowering young learners to step beyond the classroom and contribute meaningfully to society. Designed to foster awareness, accountability, and real-world impact, the initiative focuses on reducing household electricity units through informed practices and collective action. As part of the projects implementation, five student representatives are identified from each grade across both schools to lead and encourage participation. Each student will work closely with their own household and five additional homes to track electricity consumption using recent electricity bills or recorded unit usage. These baseline readings establish a benchmark, which families will strive to improve upon over the course of two months by adopting energy-efficient habits. Students will actively engage with families by visiting homes, reading out energy conservation information cards, distributing awareness materials such as flyers and fridge magnets, and encouraging households to take an energy-saving pledge through a QR-based counter. The project aims to move beyond structured dialogue, enabling students to take ownership and lead positive change within their neighborhoods while building confidence, responsibility, and leadership. Speaking about the initiative, a school representative shared, This initiative allows our students to experience learning beyond textbooks. By partnering with TNEB and involving families directly, we will be able to reinforce the importance of sustainability while empowering students to lead by example. In addition to its focus on sustainability, CS Academy continues to actively engage students in broader community-based CSR initiatives. As part of its Anti-Narcotics School Immersion Program, students of Grade 9 from the IG stream recently participated in an awareness rally in Kovaipudur. The objective of the programme was to create public awareness about addiction while exposing learners to the importance of reaching out to the community for a meaningful social cause. From stepping off the school bus with placards in hand to chanting slogans throughout the rally, the experience stood out as a powerful example of experiential learning. Students participated with enthusiasm and unity, putting forth their best efforts to amplify the message. Reflecting on the event, students described the experience as inspiring and motivating, with one student sharing that she felt they had truly made a difference. CS Academy extends its heartfelt appreciation to all those who supported and contributed to the success of these initiatives, reaffirming the schools commitment to nurturing socially responsible and engaged citizens. csacademy.in/coimbatore
