What is the recognition of Purushottam month
According to the scriptures, except Baba Baidyanath, all the gods and goddesses of Devlok reside in Rajgir in Purushottam month. Rajgir is considered to be of special importance in this month, but Baba Baidyanath does not go anywhere leaving Babadham due to his commitment. It is said that when Ravana was taking Baba Bholenath with him to Lanka, Baba had promised Ravana that if you put me on the ground anywhere except Lanka, I will not go anywhere except that place. When Baba was kept in Devghar by Ravana, since then Baba does not go anywhere according to the promise given to Ravana. According to belief, after worshiping from Rajgir, a large number of devotees come to Babadham during Purushottam month and offer prayers. The beauty of Baba Nagri is being built in Sawan.

After burning the universe, Shiva applied the ashes in the body.
Prapanchakarta Shiva burnt the half-existing world into ashes and took its essence. By burning the world, Shiva has applied its ashes in his body. Shiva has taken the essence of the world in the form of Bhabhuta Potne. The hair from the essence of sky, the face from the essence of air, the heart from the essence of fire, the region of the waist from the essence of water and the essence of earth have been worn in the knees. The Tripund which Shiva is holding in his forehead is the essence of Brahma, Vishnu and Rudra. Lord Shiva has brought all the essence of the universe under his control considering everything as the cause of the world’s rise. Followers of Shiva follow him and consume ashes. The world is ashes. The world behind which man is running. That’s just ashes. The truth of the world is ashes. This world is being burnt again and again by fire. Due to this it becomes ashes.
