About

Purnima, the full moon day, occurs once every lunar month. This represents the civil day when Purnima is present at sunrise, which is considered the day for holy baths (Snana) and charity (Dana).

Significance:

The full moon represents the completion of a cycle and the fullness of divine grace. It is a time when spiritual practices yield greater results and is traditionally dedicated to various deities depending on the month (e.g., Guru Purnima).

Rituals & Puja Vidhi:

1. Holy Bath: Taking a ritual bath in a river or at home while meditating on the divine. 2. Prayers: Offering prayers and reciting stotras during the morning hours. 3. Charity: Donating food, clothes, and essentials to the needy.
