The festivities are set to kick off with the Pancha Bhuta Aradhana at Dhyanalinga, a potent yogic process of elemental cleansing, followed by the Linga Bhairavi Maha Yatra, Sadhguru’s discourse, explosive meditations, and the spectacular Adiyogi Divya Darshanam, a powerful visual journey depicting the origin of yoga.
Sadhguru, who will guide a LIVE and online audience through powerful midnight and Brahma Muhurutam meditations, emphasizes on the importance of keeping one’s spine erect on the “grand night of Shiva”.
“The significance of the day is that there is an upward movement of energy in the human body. So this night, we want to spend awake, aware, with our spines erect so that whatever sadhana we are doing, there is a great assistance from nature,” Sadhguru says.

In recent years, Isha Mahashivratri celebration has consistently shattered streaming records.
In 2022, the Mahashivratri livestream surpassed viewership numbers for both the Super Bowl and the Grammys. In 2023, with a staggering 140 million LIVE viewership, Isha Mahashivratri emerged as the largest and most-watched spiritual festival globally.
This year, it promises to be even grander with PVR INOX, a chain of multiplexes in India, creating history by tying up with the Isha Mahashivratri to stream the 12-hour celebrations LIVE on select big screens across the country for the first time.
In order to make it a truly immersive, spiritual experience for seekers across the world, program, like ‘Rudraksha Diksha’, ‘In The Grace of Yoga’, ‘Yaksha Festival’, ‘Maha Annadanam’, and Mahashivratri & Shivanga sadhana are being offered to enhance one’s well-being.-ANI
