To start 2023 with God’s blessings, devotees across India were seen witnessing various ‘aartis’ in various cities. People gathered at the ghat to watch Ganga aarti. `Bhasma aarti` of Lord Shiva was performed in the early morning hours at the Mahakaleshwar Temple. Mahakaleshwar’s Bhasma Aarti is believed to be the most special, as it is the only `Jyotirling` amongst the 12 where the Bhasma is applied on the `Shivling`.
