Maha Shivaratri is an Indian festival celebrated annually in honour of the god Shiva. The name also refers to the night when Shiva performs the heavenly dance. On this night there is an intense upsurge of energy on the planet due to it's solar positioning. If one stays awake and keeps their spine straight for the duration of this night (6pm to 6am) it brings tremendous benefits to their system. There is a Shivaratri in every luni-solar month of the Hindu calendar, on the month's 13th night/14th day, but once a year in late winter (February/March, or Phalguna) and before the arrival of Summer, marks Maha Shivaratri which means "the Great Night of Shiva".
Sugriva's Atlas- Explanation by Nilesh Oak
Newer research and newer advances available to date the ancient events have pushed the antiquity of Indian civilization beyond 24,000+ years. Archaeology evidence demonstrates the presence of Human beings in India for the last 100,000+ years and the presence of agriculture for 20,000+ years. Astronomy evidence of the epics leads us to the 13th millennium BCE for Ramayana and the 6th millennium BCE for Mahabharata.
However, we have scanty descriptions of what was happening in the other parts of the world and we know little of interactions between world civilizations of deep antiquity. Did our ancestors know of the areas outside Bharata and how much did they know of the world geography?
Do we have reliable accounts of the knowledge of world geography in our ancient narratives and is it possible to test their validity? This presentation demonstrates an impressive knowledge of our ancestors of the world geography as early as 14,000+ years ago that not only is validated with empirical evidence but also corroborates what we know of the changes in ocean levels or the presence of human habitation in far off areas of the world.
