Shravan aka Sawan Vrat Dates, Importance & Mantras I Chant

Har Har Mahadev! Friends, I am Brahmin girl and a firm devotee of Mahadev ji. The month of Shravan also known as Sawan is a holy month of our Mahadev, lord Shiva. This is according to the Hindu Calendar. I observe fasts on every Monday of this month. These fasts are known as Sawan Somvar Vrat.

Why Do We Keep Sawan Somvar Vrat?

People who observe fast on Mondays during this holy month of Sawan are blessed by Lord Shiva himself!

I don’t even remember since when I have been keeping sawan somvar vrats. Lord Shiva is the creator of the universe and we keep these fasts to express our affection, devotion, trust and belief in him and his powers. It is also said that unmarried girls who want a desired life partner can keep these fasts keeping an intention about the same and ask Shiva ji to fulfil their wish. Sawan Somvar fasts are not gender specific, men women both keep these fasts with firm belief and faith.

Shiva devotees from all across the world deem this month as utterly important. Not just this, but it is said (and I totally believe in this) that you make a wish and start keeping the fasts and you will see miracles in life.

Keep the Sawan fasts and see miracles happening in your life!
