Join This Year’s Madar Shah Baba Mela: A 500-Year-Old Tradition Uniting Bihar and Nepal in Faith!

A Spiritual Fair That Crosses Borders

Every year, the Madar Shah Baba Mela draws millions of devotees from Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, and Nepal. People from all walks of life visit the sacred shrine, offering chadar at the 1000-feet-high shrine, believing that their prayers will be answered. The 2025 Mela will begin on February 23 and continue until March 4, coinciding with Mahashivratri.

The Challenging Yet Rewarding Pilgrimage

The journey to the Madar Baba shrine is not easy. Pilgrims must trek steep, winding paths to reach the top. But the struggle strengthens their faith. Devotees chant “Dum Madar Beda Paar” while climbing, filling the air with spiritual energy.

The Deep-Rooted Beliefs Behind the Mela

Legend says that those who tie a sacred thread to the ancient banyan tree near the shrine see their wishes fulfilled. Later, they return to untie it as a gesture of gratitude. Many also believe that the shrine holds the power to heal people from spiritual disturbances.

A Sacred Connection to Lord Shiva

According to Shiv Puran, when Lord Shiva’s wedding procession stopped at the Madar hills, the spirits and celestial beings accompanying him remained behind. This belief adds to the shrine’s mystical aura and makes Mahashivratri a significant occasion here.
