Sawan Monday: Why Swami Kailashanand Giri Maharaj’s 22-Hour Sadhana Is Drawing Devotees

Despite the conclusion of the Kanwar Yatra, the flow of devotees in Haridwar continues, with a large gathering of Shiva devotees likely in the city on the third Monday of Sawan, many of whom drawn to the spiritual practices and blessings of Niranjan Peethadhishwar Acharya Mahamandaleshwar Swami Kailashanand Giri Maharaj.

The city witnessed a massive turnout during the Kanwar Yatra, and another significant influx of devotees is on the upcoming Sawan Monday.

A major attraction is the 22-hour rigorous sadhana being undertaken by Swami Kailashanand Giri Maharaj at his ashram located at the Dakshin Kali Temple.

Devotees have shown particular interest in witnessing his spiritual practice and seeking his blessings. His rigorous sadhana, marked by silence, discipline and devotion to Lord Shiva, has drawn attention among devotees and followers of Sanatan culture in India and abroad.

The practice has become a subject of discussion among devotees, with many viewing his dedication to spiritual discipline as a source of inspiration.

On the third Monday of Sawan, devotees will likely gather in large numbers to bathe in the Ganga, perform Jalabhishek of Lord Shiva, and seek the darshan and blessings of Swami Kailashanand Giri Maharaj.

The conclusion of the Kanwar Yatra has not diminished Haridwar’s spiritual appeal.

With the third Sawan Monday approaching, the city will likely remain a major centre of religious activity.

At the same time, the ongoing sadhana of Kailashanand Giri Maharaj has added another attraction for devotees visiting the pilgrimage city.
