The Bhasma Aarti of Mahakaleshwar Jyotirlinga in Ujjain is one of the most divine and sought-after rituals in India. Held during the early hours of the morning, this aarti is the only one in the country where sacred ash (bhasma) is used to worship Lord Shiva. Senior citizens planning to attend this mesmerizing spiritual event can avail VIP passes for a more comfortable and hassle-free experience.

The Bhasma Aarti is performed at 4:00 AM daily in the sanctum of the Mahakaleshwar Temple. Devotees gather hours before to witness this ancient tradition, where the deity is adorned with sacred ash – representing the cycle of life and death.
