The one night of the year kept awake for Shiv ji, in four prahars — water poured on the Shivling at each. Nothing is asked for that a house cannot carry; what is asked for is stillness.
The vrat
Fruit and milk through the day; the vigil through the four prahars; the fast broken after sunrise.
Phalguna Krishna Chaturdashi in Purnimanta reckoning; Magha Krishna Chaturdashi in Amanta. The night is the same.
