Everything belongs to the Divine anyway, but the offering helps the... feeling blossom within you.
Shivratri is the bridge between the material world and the ethereal world within you.

Singing, chanting, and puja are just aids for this.

Shivratri is neither merely a ritual nor entertainment.

Everything is Shiva.
The Divine appears as the Guru and is also present as your own Self.
Realizing this truth is ...the ultimate goal of spirituality.
