NASHIK: On the occasion of Shravani Somvar, various religious programmes were organised with great enthusiasm in various Shiv temples in the city. There were long queues of devotees for darshan at Shri Kapaleshwar temple, Tilbhandeshwar temple, Someshwar and Trimbakeshwar. Like every year, this year’s Kapaleshwar Palkhi was taken out with great enthusiasm.
On this occasion, a large number of devotees took darshan of Lord Kapaleshwar. Also, the Shivlaksharchan ceremony was held at Kailas Math. On this occasion, hundreds of devotees took darshan. The priests of Kailas Math performed Shivlaksharchan throughout the day. This festival is held every year for a month. For the last two years, due to the pandemic, the circumambulation (parikrama) held on Shravan Mondays at Trimbakeshwar was banned.
Now, after lifting of all the restrictions, the devotees will be able to enjoy the parikrama every Monday during this Shravan month. Yesterday, on the first Shravani Somwar, devotees thronged Lord Trimbakeshwar temple for darshan. Long queues were seen at the temple and Kushawart Teerth.
