Devotees from far and wide gather at the Mahakal temple to witness the sacred ritual performed during the Brahma Muhurta and seek blessings from Baba Mahakal. 'Bhasma aarti' (offering with ashes) is a famous ritual here.
It is performed during the 'Brahma Muhurta' period, between 3:30 and 5:30 a.m.According to the temple priest, Baba Mahakal's doors were opened at Brahma Muhurta, following tradition. After that, Lord Mahakal performed a holy bath with Panchamrit, a mixture of milk, curd, ghee, sugar, and honey.
Thereafter, Baba Mahakal was decorated with cannabis and sandalwood. After that, a unique Bhasma Aarti and dhoop-deep Aarti were performed, accompanied by the beating of drums and the blowing of Shankhs (conch shells).
Additionally, it is believed that the devotee who participates in the Bhasma Aarti of Baba Mahakal during the month of Shravan has all their sufferings removed and all their wishes fulfilled.
Situated on the banks of the River Shipra in the historic city of Ujjain, Mahakaleshwar Temple remains one of India's most venerated pilgrimage sites, drawing devotees seeking spiritual solace and divine blessings.
