Isha Mahashivaratri 2022: 7 Days of Spiritual And Cultural Exuberance

The nightlong festival will begin at 6 PM IST on 1st March and go on till 6 AM IST the following morning, in the presence of Sadhguru. Isha Mahashivratri will be livestreamed online on Isha Foundation’s YouTube channel and telecast on all major television networks in English, and 6 foreign languages – Nepali, Russian, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Chinese. Along with Local Indian Languages, Tamil, Hindi, Telugu, Kannada, Marathi, Gujarati, Malayalam, Oriya, Bengali and Assamese.
Mahashivratri is one of the most significant festivals of India, celebrating the Grace of Shiva, the Adi Guru from whom the Yogic tradition originates.

Planetary positions on this night are such that there is a powerful natural upsurge of energy in the human system. It is enormously beneficial for one’s physical and spiritual wellbeing to stay awake and aware, keeping the spine vertical throughout the night.
Following COVID-19 protocols, entry to the event will be partially restricted and largely by invitation only. While the entire event will be livestreamed in 16 languages on Isha Foundation’s YouTube channels, millions of devotees from across the globe are also expected to tune in through television. For those who attend the festival at the Yoga Center, medical screening, social distancing, wearing masks, and carrying sanitizers will also remain mandatory in addition to compliance with all government directives for in-person gatherings.

Starting with the Pancha Bhuta Aradhana at Dhyanalinga, this nightlong celebration will see Linga Bhairavi Maha Yatra, Satsang with Sadhguru, midnight meditations, and the spectacular Adiyogi Divya Darshanam. Other highlights of the Mahashivratri celebrations will be a host of spectacular music and dance performances. Renowned artists from different parts of the country like Papon, Master Saleem, Hansraj Raghuvanshi, Mangli, and Sean Roldan will regale the audiences with their unique and diverse brands of music. Other attractions include music by Isha Foundation’s own homegrown band – Sounds of Isha, and dance performances by Isha Samskriti.

In 2021, online viewership of the Mahashivratri event on March 11-12 was 50% more than the Grammy Awards telecast, which aired on March 14. The celebrations at Isha Yoga Center was the only Indian livestream to make it to the top 50 livestreams in the world that week. The event was watched by people from 130 countries, making it the biggest festival globally in March 2021.

In the Grace of Yoga
“In the Grace of Yoga” is a Mahashivratri special program that provides a spiritual seeker an unparallel opportunity to bask in the Grace of the Guru during one of the most spiritually significant days of the year. Join Sadhguru as he cuts through all social, cultural, and religious frills, uncovering the unchanging essence of Yoga. The program is being offered online in 9 languages across 5 time zones.

accessible to the Grace of Adiyogi. More than 5 million specially-consecrated Rudraksha beads are being prepared to be distributed all across India free of cost.

Seven Days of Spiritual and Cultural Exuberance
