Understanding the Significance of Shivji Worship During Saawan

Have you ever wondered why Shivji is worshipped during the Saavan months and why Devshayani Ekadashi happens right before that?

The Significance of Saavan

Saavan is the season when it rains. This natural phenomenon causes all the creepy crawlies to come to the surface because their holes are filled with water. Similarly, our bodies retain water to align with the weather, bringing our own “creepy crawlies” to the surface. These “creepy crawlies” include:

Emotions we have buried
Health conditions we’ve ignored
The rest we’ve skipped

The Connection with Shivji

In our texts, Shivji rules the Sun, which represents stability and discipline. When we are in recovery, we need a sense of stability and inner strength. The lingam symbolizes this strong stability, acting as a form of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) that speaks directly to our neural pathways, creating an internal landscape that releases certain hormones. Our internal landscape and neural pathways are crucial because they directly impact decision-making, stress management, and leadership effectiveness. This alignment enhances our ability to face challenges, inspire our team, and drive sustained business growth and success.

This strength is crucial during Saawan as we face our inner “creepy crawlies.”

The Meaning of Devshayani Ekadashi

Devshayani means the gods go to rest which can be translated as – the light goes to rest. Literally, there is less sunlight, which affects our bodies. Afterall, being part of the solar system, we do revolve around the Sun for sustenance. During this time:

Vishnu, the maintainer, goes to sleep.
Shiva, the transformer, is worshipped.

Everything around us is being destroyed and transformed. This is not a time for maintenance; it’s a time for alchemization. Alchemy requires destroying what was to create something new. The things that need transformation come to the surface, and Shiva, the Adiyogi, is the image our brain needs to focus on during this time.

Applying These Insights to Your Business

I want this information to reach all businesswomen because during this time, many feel they are becoming lethargic, products may perish, machines might stop working well, and emotions for both the team and oneself can run high.
Knowing why this is happening can be healing. After all, it’s all about aligning ourselves to what we can do best at this time, right? And that’s what ensures long-term stability, sustainability, and growth. Understanding this can be internally healing and help align us with our best potential.

Three Tips for Businesswomen

1. Embrace Transformation and Let Go of the Old:

Evaluate and let go of outdated practices, products, or strategies.
Embrace change and innovation to stay ahead of the competition.
Reflect on what needs to be transformed and take decisive steps to implement new, effective solutions.

2. Prioritize Stability and Inner Strength:

Focus on building a stable foundation for your business.
Strengthen your team, improve processes, and ensure financial stability.
Cultivate discipline and a sense of stability to create a resilient business environment.

3. Address Neglected Issues:

Use this period to address any ignored aspects of your business.
Resolve unresolved conflicts, attend to unattended feedback, and prioritize health and well-being.
Bring these issues to light and resolve them for a healthier and more productive work environment.

I am sure this will help you. As above, so below. Once we start living in alignment with our environment, stability and longevity is ensured
