Maha Mrityunjaya Mantra

ॐ त्र्यं॑बकं यजामहे सु॒गन्धिं॑ पुष्टि॒वर्ध॑नम् ।
उ॒र्वा॒रु॒कमि॑व॒ बन्ध॑नान् मृ॒त्योर् मु॑क्षीय॒ माऽमृता॑त् ।

Om Tryambakam Yajamahe Sugandhim Pushti-Vardhanam Urvarukamiva Bandhanan Mrityormukshiya Mamritat

Maha Shivaratri is dedicated to god Siva and is celebrated mainly at midnight. It’s wedding of Siva and Parvati (Sakti) . This is the night when Siva and Sakti united.
Siva Purana, Skanda Purana, Linga Purana and Padma Purana narrate stories that – on this day, Siva drank poisonous negativity to protect the world on this evening.
This festival’s main significance is overcoming darkness, negativity and ignorance in life and the world.
