The month of Shravan is the fifth month of the Hindu calendar, and is the most auspicious month of the Chaturmas. On Purnima, the star ‘Shravan’ rules the sky, hence the month is called Shravan.
This month is spread out with innumerably religious festivals and ceremonies and almost all the days of this month are auspicious.
Shravan is considered the holiest month of the year.
Each Monday of this month, known as Shravana Somvar, is a special day in temples where the Dharanatra hangs over the ling or the idol to bathe it with holy water, day and night. Devotees pile the ling high with Bael leaves and flowers and fast till sunset. The Nandadeep (24 hour lamp) burns steadily in the temples.
