Maha Annadaan Seva on Mahashivratri in Kashi
Feed the Devotees of Mahadev and Receive the Blessings of Maa Annapurna

🔱 Mahashivratri in Kashi — When Seva Becomes Eternal Punya

On 15th February, the sacred city of Kashi (Varanasi) transforms into a sea of devotion as lakhs of devotees gather to celebrate Mahashivratri, the most powerful night dedicated to Lord Shiva.
From midnight abhishekams to continuous chanting of Har Har Mahadev, the entire city becomes a living temple.
Kashi is not just the place of Mahadev’s residence — it is also the divine abode of Maa Annapurna, the Goddess who ensures that no devotee ever goes hungry. On this auspicious night, offering Maha Annadaan Seva is believed to bring immeasurable spiritual merit.
This Mahashivratri, you are invited to contribute and participate in Maha Annadaan Seva in Kashi — feeding sadhus, devotees, pilgrims, and the needy who walk barefoot through the night seeking Mahadev’s blessings.

🕉️ Why Annadaan in Kashi Holds Supreme Importance
In Sanatan Dharma, Annadaan is regarded as the highest form of charity.
📖 Scriptural Reference
The Garuda Purana states:
“Annadaanam Param Daanam”
There is no charity greater than the donation of food.

Kashi holds a special place in all scriptures. According to the Skanda Purana (Kashi Khanda):
“Kashyam dattaṃ bhojanaṃ sahasra-guna phala-pradam.”
Food offered in Kashi yields a thousandfold spiritual reward.
Feeding someone in Kashi is considered equal to feeding Lord Shiva Himself, as every being here is believed to be a form of Mahadev.

🌙 Why Annadaan on Mahashivratri Is Most Auspicious
Mahashivratri is the night when Shiva and Shakti unite, making it the most powerful time for seva and spiritual upliftment.
The Shiva Purana mentions:
“Shivratryam kritam danam akshayam bhavati.”
Charity done on Mahashivratri yields eternal merit.
On this night:
  • Devotees fast all day and night
  • Sadhus remain in deep meditation
  • Pilgrims walk long distances for darshan
  • The hungry and tired seek nourishment
Offering Annadaan on Mahashivratri is believed to:
  • Remove past karmic burdens
  • Grant peace, prosperity, and protection
  • Bring stability to family and life
  • Please both Mahadev and Maa Annapurna

🍛 Maha Annadaan Seva in Kashi — What Will Be Offered
With your support, Maha Annadaan Seva will include:
✅ Freshly prepared sattvic meals
Simple, pure, and nourishing food prepared with devotion.

✅ Warm food for fasting devotees breaking their vrat
Comforting meals to support devotees after day-long fasting.

✅ Nourishing meals for sadhus and pilgrims
Strength and sustenance for those walking and meditating through the night.

✅ Prasadam distribution near temples and ghats
Prasadam served with respect, humility, and gratitude.

Each plate served is an offering of devotion, humility, and gratitude — blessed by the divine presence of Kashi.

🌼 Religious Belief: Feeding Here Is Serving the Divine
A popular belief in Kashi says:
“Kashi mein bhookhe ko bhojan dena,
Mahadev ke trishul par haath rakhne ke samaan hai.”
The Annapurna Upanishad further declares:
“Anna hi Brahma hai, aur jo anna deta hai, wahi Ishwar ko prapt karta hai.”
By participating in Maha Annadaan Seva, devotees align themselves with the highest dharma — preserving life through nourishment.

🙏 Why Your Participation Matters
Your contribution will help:
  • Feed thousands of devotees visiting Kashi
  • Support sadhus and saints dedicated to Shiva
  • Ensure no pilgrim remains hungry on Mahashivratri
  • Keep alive the ancient tradition of Annadaan
For you, this seva becomes:
  • A sacred offering to Mahadev
  • A blessing from Maa Annapurna
  • A source of Akshay Punya (eternal merit)
  • A moment of deep spiritual connection
