It’s Maha Shivratri and The Quint is reminding you of a unique way to celebrate the festival.

As one is well aware, Lord Shiva – of the holy trinity of Hindu gods – is a fan of cannabis. The wild-locked god features in several texts as being quite the proponent of weed!

The Quint ran a #YestoWeed campaign a few months ago, where we urged the decriminalisation of weed. On the day that we eulogise/celebrate/revere Shiva, therefore, isn’t it apt to remember the cannabis that the lord loves and remove the stigma around it?
