Sanatan Sanstha of UK (SSUK) celebrated Saavan Shivratri at Shravana Baba Centre in London. More than 40 children were invited to come and learn the importance of Shravana month, why Mahadev is worshipped in this month and to learn to do a Rudrabhishek offering our love and gratitude to Lord Shiva. The event was hosted by Pt. Ashish Mishra from SSUK Team.
Children and their parents participated with full vigour and made the room reverberated with sounds of ‘Om Namah Shivay’ and other Shiva Mantras. The programme also had a special lingam puja performed by the head priest of Sharavana Babaji centre with Vedic chants. Shiva Bhajan’s were also offered by devotees, as children understood the importance of doing a havan after a puja.
The programme was managed by SSUK team lead by Ashwani Srivastava, Ashish Mishra, C. K Naidu, Darshan Singh, Ridhi Vyas, Hirdesh Gupta, Ajay Prakash, Anupam Fotedar and Abhi Yogi. The programme had multiple volunteers from Sharavana Babaji Centre who worked together to create a beautiful Saavan Shivratri. Sushil Panditji also graced the event who said ‘it's very important to educate our children on Sanatan dharma” and congratulated the organisers for putting together such a successful event in London, attended by hundreds.
