Day 1 – Shiv Charitra Katha – Introduction

Jai Bholenath!

Shravan month is the holy fifth month of the Hindu year dedicated to Lord Shankar. During this month, devotees carry out various religious activities, fasts, including prayers for Lord Shiv and celebrate various divine occasions like Janamashtami and Raksha Bandhan.

Throughput this month, we offer at Lord Shiv’s holy lotus feet the entire Shiv Charitra (story of Lord Shiv) from Shri Ram Charit Manas. We present this, firstly, in the form of videos from the Melbourne, Australia, Ram Katha by Pujya Bhaishri, then detailed articles from Shri Manas Gatha By Pujya Bhaishri and pictures to flow with the katha. We will also endeavour to put darshan of the divine Shivalay at Shri Hari Mandir from time to time.

To begin with, here is a short slide show of pictures which summarises the entire Shiv Charitra you will watch and read during this holy month.
