Sawan, also known as "Shravan" or the "Month of Monsoon," is a significant period in the Hindu calendar. It typically falls between July and August and is dedicated to Lord Shiva. During this month, devotees observe various religious rituals and fasting to seek blessings and express their devotion to Lord Shiva.
Sawan is associated with the arrival of the monsoon season, which brings relief from the scorching summer heat. The lush greenery and refreshing showers add to the charm of this month. Many people believe that the water from holy rivers, such as the Ganges, becomes particularly sacred during this time and use it for religious ceremonies and purification rituals.
