മഹാ ശിവരാത്രി 2026 വെഴുപ്പൂർ ശ്രീ മഹാദേവ ക്ഷേത്രം കോഴിക്കോട് | Maha Shivaratri 2026 Vezhuppur Sree Mahadeva Temple Kozhikode
Maha Shivaratri is one of the most sacred and spiritually significant festivals dedicated to Lord Shiva and it is observed with great devotion and traditional grandeur at Vezhuppur Sree Mahadeva Temple in Kozhikode district, Kerala. This auspicious occasion draws devotees from nearby villages and distant places who gather at the temple to seek the blessings of Lord Mahadeva through prayers, fasting and ritual worship.
At Vezhuppur Sree Mahadeva Temple, Maha Shivaratri is marked by a series of sacred ceremonies and temple rituals that reflect the deep-rooted Shaiva traditions of Kerala. The festival period is filled with special poojas, abhishekams, and homams conducted by experienced priests according to ancient tantric and Vedic practices. Devotees offer neyvilakku, bilva leaves and other traditional offerings believing that sincere worship on Shivaratri brings spiritual purification, prosperity and inner peace.
The temple premises take on a divine atmosphere as lamps are lit, bells resonate and the fragrance of incense fills the air. Deeparadhana performed in the evening is a major attraction creating a serene and uplifting experience for devotees. Athazha pooja and night-time rituals hold special importance on Shivaratri, as many devotees observe vigil and remain awake in prayer and meditation, chanting sacred mantras such as “Om Namah Shivaya.”
In addition to religious observances, the festival also includes devotional and cultural programs that enhance the spiritual ambiance of the celebrations. Discourses by learned speakers, bhajans and traditional music performances help devotees connect more deeply with the essence of Lord Shiva’s teachings. The rhythmic beats of Chenda Melam add a traditional Kerala temple festival charm to the event making the celebration both spiritually enriching and culturally vibrant.
