    \n\n1. INTRODUCTION<\/b><\/a><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    \n\nShravan Month or Mass<\/b><\/a> is also known as \n\nSawan Month.<\/b><\/a>\n

    \n\nIn the vast landscape of the Hindu lunar calendar, few months are as revered, auspicious, and spiritually intense as the \n    \nmonth of Sawan (also known as Shravan).<\/b><\/a> Falling during the monsoon season, usually between \n\nJuly and August,<\/b><\/a> Sawan is deeply intertwined with \n\ndevotion to Lord Shiva,<\/b><\/a> Vedic rituals, and profound spiritual growth. \n Temples overflow with chanting, devotees<\/b><\/a> undertake \nfasts and pilgrimages,<\/b><\/a> and the atmosphere is suffused with bhakti (devotion).\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n\n2. WHAT IS SHRAVAN MONTH?<\/b><\/a><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    \n\nSawan or Shravan Maas<\/b><\/a> is the \n\nfifth month<\/b><\/a> of the Hindu lunar calendar. It typically starts after \n\nAshadha Purnima<\/b><\/a> and continues till \n\nShravan Purnima.<\/b><\/a> In regions that follow the Purnimanta calendar (like North India), it is counted from full moon to full moon. In Amanta calendar regions \n\n(like Maharashtra and Gujarat),<\/b><\/a> it is counted from \n\nnew moon to new moon.<\/b><\/a>\n

    \n    \nSawan<\/b><\/a> is primarily dedicated to \n\nLord Shiva,<\/b><\/a> and each \n\nMonday (Somwar)<\/b><\/a> of this month is celebrated as \n\nShravan Somwar,<\/b><\/a> a powerful and auspicious time for \n\nfasting and worship.<\/b><\/a>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
