Today is MahaShivratri, the most auspicious festival of my homeland, Jammu & Kashmir. My mother, a Lord Shiva devotee, has regaled us with many stories of Bhole Nath. Her stories of Shiva taught me how our festivals are always closely linked with nature. Even our gods and goddesses were found in nature.
