Yesterday was Shivaratri, the night of Shiva, the mystic, the philosopher, and arguably the greatest God of the Hindus. Shiva is the creator and the destroyer, and the embodiment of everything in this universe, good or bad.
Shiva is loved not only because for his great qualities, but also the fact that he has normal human traits such as anger, love, and of course his addiction to marijuana.
Now to the night. Keeping awake all through it is said to be particularly good as the vibrations in the air are said to be electric. The ancient Hindus were keen astronomers, and it is said that the planetary positions can explain the energy which is felt on this night. Temples look and feel otherworldly, the people are uninhibited, and there is joy and mirth all around.
And I have first hand experience. What I'll say is music definitely helps!
I am so energized right now that I'm going for a jog!
