Sawan 2025 in kashi varanasi

 

Sawan 2025 in kashi

Hindus regard the month of 'Sawan', also known as 'Shravan month', as auspicious for worshipping Lord Shiva. Every Monday during this month, devotees observe 'Shravan Somwar' or 'Sawan Somwar', a fast. They also pray to Lord Shiva for his blessing. Many worshippers fast for sixteen Mondays, or 'Solah Somwar', beginning with the first Somwar of the Sawan month. While Mondays are reserved for Lord Shiva, all Tuesdays or Mangalwar in Sawan month are reserved for Goddess Parvati. Fasting on Tuesday during Sawan month is known as 'Mangal Gauri Vrat', according to Drik Panchang. Other auspicious days in Shravan month include Sawan Shivaratri and Hariyali Amavasya.

WHEN IS SAWAN MONTH BEGINNING? 

After about 19 years, the month of Shravan dedicated to Bhagwan Shiva will be celebrated for two months this year, and the main reason for this is 'Malamas'. The month of Shravan or Sawan will begin on July 25, 2025, and end on August 23, 2025.

Malamas, formerly known as 'Adhikmas', is a three-year extra month that falls between the months of February and October.

Sawan Somvar Vrat 2025: 

Solah Somvar Vrat: 

Some devotees continue to fast on Monday even after Sawan. Beginning with the first Somwar (Monday), they fast for the next sixteen Mondays. The sixteen-day fasting period is known as Solah Somwar Vrat. The weekly Monday fast was observed for one day, and food was consumed only once in the evening. Sawan generally observes fasting during the months of July, August, and September.

SIGNIFICANCE OF SAWAN MONTH: 

According to Hindu legend, Lord Shiva consumed the poison that arose from the ocean during the 'Samudra Manthan' and thus saved the world. As a result, his devotees observe the Sawan or Shravan month to pray to the Lord, who always protects and blesses his followers with good health and fortune.

Sawan is the fifth month of the Hindu calendar, falling between July and August. Devotees observe fasts and pray to Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati for a peaceful and prosperous life on this special occasion. They also go on 'Kanwar Yatra', where they collect water from holy rivers and carry Kanwars on their shoulders to offer to Shivlingas at nearby temples. Every year, thousands of devout pilgrims make the journey. Furthermore, it is said that the holy water should not be kept on the floor or any other surface until it is offered to Lord Shiva.

PRAYAGRAJ TOUR

 

PRAYAGRAJ TOUR

Introduction

Prayagraj, formerly known as Allahabad, is one of the most significant spiritual cities in India. Situated at the confluence of the Ganges, Yamuna, and the mythical Sarasvati rivers, it holds immense religious and historical importance. Known for its vibrant festivals like Kumbh Mela, Prayagraj attracts millions of devotees, pilgrims, and tourists each year.

Whether you are seeking spiritual fulfillment or exploring the city’s rich history, Prayagraj offers a wealth of experiences that promise to leave a lasting impact. In this guide, we will take you through the must-visit places and experiences that make Prayagraj a unique destination for every traveler.

Top Attractions on the Prayagraj Tour

  1. Triveni Sangam
    The Triveni Sangam is the holiest site in Prayagraj, where the sacred rivers Ganga, Yamuna, and the invisible Sarasvati meet. Pilgrims flock to this spot to take a ritual dip, believed to cleanse sins and provide spiritual liberation. The Sangam is particularly significant during the Kumbh Mela, one of the world’s largest religious gatherings.

  2. Kumbh Mela
    Every 12 years, Prayagraj hosts the grand Kumbh Mela, a festival that draws millions of devotees to the city. If you plan your Prayagraj tour during this period, you’ll experience a vibrant atmosphere filled with prayers, rituals, processions, and spiritual discourses. It is an event like no other, where the entire city becomes a bustling center of spirituality and devotion.

  3. Prayagraj Fort
    The Prayagraj Fort, built by the Mughal emperor Akbar, is an architectural marvel located on the banks of the Yamuna River. This imposing fort is a perfect blend of Mughal and Hindu architectural styles. Inside the fort, you’ll find the Ashoka Pillar, Allahabad Museum, and other historical relics. The fort also offers stunning views of the Triveni Sangam and the city.

  4. Anand Bhavan
    The ancestral home of the Nehru family, Anand Bhavan has been transformed into a museum that showcases the rich history of India's freedom struggle. It was the residence of Jawaharlal Nehru, the first Prime Minister of India, and the place where key political meetings and movements took place. The museum offers an intriguing insight into India’s journey toward independence.

  5. Allahabad University
    Founded in 1887, Allahabad University is one of the oldest and most prestigious educational institutions in India. The campus is home to beautiful colonial-era buildings and a rich legacy in arts, literature, and science. A walk through the campus gives you a glimpse of the city’s intellectual culture.

  6. Bharat Mata Temple
    A unique temple dedicated to Mother India, the Bharat Mata Temple is located near the Kumbh Mela grounds. The temple is known for its large map of India carved in marble and dedicated to the spirit of the nation. It serves as a symbol of unity and national pride, and the peaceful environment here offers a perfect spot for contemplation.

  7. Hanuman Mandir
    Located on Naya Ghat, the Hanuman Mandir is one of the most revered temples in Prayagraj. The temple is famous for its large idol of Lord Hanuman and its tranquil ambiance. Devotees visit this temple to seek the blessings of Lord Hanuman for strength, courage, and devotion.

  8. Minto Park
    Minto Park is a historical park located near the Prayagraj Railway Station. This is the site where the Allahabad Agreement was signed in 1913, marking an important event in India’s independence movement. The park is well-maintained and serves as a peaceful retreat amidst the hustle and bustle of the city.

  9. Shankar Viman Mandapam
    Dedicated to Lord Shiva, this temple is a relatively new but strikingly beautiful temple in Prayagraj. The Shankar Viman Mandapam features magnificent architecture and offers a serene environment for worship and meditation.

Best Time to Visit Prayagraj

The best time to visit Prayagraj is from October to March, when the weather is cool and comfortable. The city becomes particularly crowded during the Kumbh Mela, which occurs every 12 years (the next Kumbh Mela will be in 2025). Visiting during the festival offers a unique opportunity to experience the grandeur of this event, but it’s best to plan in advance due to the large crowds.

Prayagraj Tour Packages

Shivakashi Travels offers customized Prayagraj tour packages that cater to your spiritual and sightseeing needs. Our packages include:

  • Guided tours to all the major attractions such as Triveni Sangam, Prayagraj Fort, and Anand Bhavan.
  • Accommodation arrangements at well-located hotels and guesthouses to ensure a comfortable stay.
  • Transportation services including car, bus, and train bookings to ensure a smooth journey.
  • Special events: Attend aarti on the banks of the Saryu River, and enjoy the evening Ganga aarti for a spiritual experience like no other.

Why Visit Prayagraj?

  1. Spiritual Significance
    The city holds immense spiritual importance, especially for Hindus, due to its association with the Triveni Sangam, Kumbh Mela, and temples dedicated to Lord Shiva, Lord Ram, and other deities.

  2. Rich History
    Prayagraj is a city of deep historical significance, with landmarks such as Prayagraj Fort and Anand Bhavan that showcase its role in India’s history.

  3. Cultural Experience
    The city offers a mix of spiritual experiences, from holy dips in the sacred Triveni Sangam to witnessing vibrant religious ceremonies and festivals like Kumbh Mela and Ram Navami.

  4. Access to Other Destinations
    Prayagraj serves as a convenient base for visiting nearby attractions such as Varanasi and Ayodhya, adding value to your overall experience in Uttar Pradesh.

Conclusion

A Prayagraj tour offers the perfect opportunity to connect with the deep spiritual heritage of India while experiencing the vibrant culture and rich history of the city. Whether you’re here for a religious journey, a historical exploration, or simply to witness the grandeur of Kumbh Mela, Prayagraj promises an unforgettable experience.
