Mumbai: In the rich tapestry of Hindu spirituality, every fast and festival holds a deep symbolic and devotional value. Among them, Pradosh Vrat stands out as a powerful ritual dedicated to Lord Shiva — the divine protector and destroyer of evil. Observed twice a month during the Trayodashi tithi (13th lunar day) of both the waxing (Shukla Paksha) and waning (Krishna Paksha) moon phases, this vrat is believed to bring relief from sorrows, karmic burdens 2862271and life’s challenges.
