Jai Shree Krishna, Chaitra Navratri From- Wednesday 22nd March 2023 to Thursday 30th March 2023

 Nine-forms of Goddess Shakti twice a year with much devotion and fervour for nine continuous days. These days are called ‘Navratris’. Although there are four Navratris that fall in a year, it is the Chaitra/Vasant Navratri  and the Sharad Navratri that have more importance.

These two ‘Navratris’ are more significant because the ninth day of Chaitra Navratri is celebrated as RamNavami ( Birthday of bhagvan shri Ram), while the tenth day of Sharad Navratri is celebrated as Dussehra or Vijayadashami (When Bhagvan shri Ram kills the Demon Ravan).

The first month of the Hindu-Lunar calendar is Chaitra and Navratris start on its first day. This day is also celebrated as Gudi Padwa in Maharashtra 

The  Navratri signifies the victory of good over evil and positivity over negativity the Goddess Shakti, kills the demon, Mahishasur. In our life, the Goddess represents our divine inner self. This is often taken over by the Demon, Mahishasur, which represents us being engrossed only in enjoying life and indulging in pleasurable things. And allow Aham= Ego to devlope, Devotees worship the Goddess in these nine days in the hope of being free from t Mahishasur.

All the nine days of the Navratri, different Goddesses are worshiped ,The first three days Goddess Parvati, (with her positive energy the negativity  minimised) in her different forms is wordhipped. The next three days Goddess Laxmi ,in her different forms is worshipped and the last three days Goddess Saraswati . in her different is worshipped

Chaitra Maas The Month of Divine Festivals

Chaitra Maas is the 1st lunar month in Hindu calendar. In Hindu Calendar, there are two methods to mark the lunar month. In one, lunar month is marked from Purnima to Purnima (known as Purnimanta calendar) and in other lunar month is marked from Amavasya to Amavasya (known as Amanta calendar).

Chaitra Month, is the first month in the traditional Hindu calendar followed in North India.  This calendar is followed mainly in Uttar Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh, Jharkhand, Punjab, Jammu and Kashmir, Haryana, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Uttarakhand, Bihar and Chhattisgarh. The traditional Hindi New Year is celebrated on the Chaitra Shukla Pratipada (on the first day of the bright or waxing phase of moon in Chaitra Month).

Chaitra maas also known as Madhu maasam ,Madhu means honey and Chaitra maasam is as sweet as honey. In Bhagawadgeeta, Vibhoothi Yoga (canto#10 sloka#35) Bhagvan  Shree Krishna says that He is the Vasant Rutu among the seasons.
It is so auspicious that it is the month when Bhagvan Brahma had commenced the creation and to commemorate that day we celebrate Ugaadi festival. Chaitra maas is the sacred month in which Maryaada Purushottama; Bhagvan Shree Ram was born on the 9th day of bright fortnight that is celebrated as Shri Raam Navami It is the sacred month in which Bhagvan Vishnu incarnated as Matsyaavatar (Giant Fish) the very first among the Dashaavtar and restored the lost Vedas that day is celebrated as Matsya Jayanti.

this is  month when Sun God transits into first house of the zodiac viz. Aries (Mesha Raasi) where Sun gets exalted. That day known as Mesha Sankranti is celebrated as Vishu festival in some parts of South India. Chaitra maas is the sacred month in which the Hanuman ji was born that is celebrated as Hanuman Jayanti on the full Moon day.


Like we celebrate Devi Navaratri during Aaso Month known as Sharadiya Navratri ,which falls in September- October, a nine day festival known as Vasant Navaratri  is celebrated during Chaitra maas starting from Ugaadi day during Uttaraayana. During this nine day p mata Durga is worshiped ( please read Navratri Article in website)


Udakakumbha daana

Udaka means water, Kumbha means pot. Giving charity of water stored in a pot made up of Copper, Silver, or at least earthen pot (made up of mud) covered with a new cloth to a needy  during this period is said to be very sacred and highly punyadayi.

Yesha DharmaGhato Dhattoh Brahma Vishnu Sivathmaka
Asya Pradhanathsakalam mamasanthu manoratha

Meaning: This water pot called Dharma Ghata signifying the Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva bring unto me fulfillment of all desires.

Taking bath in sacred rivers, arranging of water and shelter to the travelers and people walking in the Sun, Anna Daana (food) to the hungry and needy are some of the maasa dharma prescribed during Chaitra Mass.

पितृ पक्ष – श्राद्ध पक्ष शनिवार १०-०९-२०२२ से रविवार २५-०९-२०२२.

हमारे पूर्वजों को श्रद्धांजलि अर्पित करने का दिव्य अनुष्ठान।

यह वह समय है जब दुनिया भर के हिंदू अपने पूर्वजों को याद करते हैं क्योंकि उनके के अपने वर्तमान जीवन में किए गए योगदान और व्यवस्था से हमारा  जीवन को बेहतर बन सका है.

प्रति व्यक्ति तीन ऋण।

वैदिक शास्त्रों के अनुसार व्यक्ति का जन्म तीन ऋणों के साथ होता है।

भगवान के कर्ज को ‘देव- ऋण’ कहा जाता है।

ऋषि-मुनियों का ऋण ‘ऋषि-ऋण’ कहलाता है।

माता-पिता और पूर्वजों का तीसरा ऋण ‘पितृ-ऋण’ कहलाता है।

ये तीन कर्ज किसी के जीवन पर तीन गिरवी की तरह हैं, लेकिन देनदारी नहीं।यह हिंदू धर्मग्रंथों द्वारा अपने कर्तव्यों और जिम्मेदारियों के बारे में जागरूकता हेतु इनका पालन करना चाहिए.

“पितृ-ऋण” – अपने माता-पिता और पूर्वजों का ऋण।

एक व्यक्ति से अपने जीवन के दौरान जो तीसरा कर्ज चुकाने की उम्मीद की जाती है, वह है अपने माता-पिता और पूर्वजों का।

परिवार का नाम और वह जिस महान धर्म से संबंधित है, सहित उसका संपूर्ण अस्तित्व, उसके माता-पिता और पूर्वजों के उपहार हैं।

जिस तरह आपके माता-पिता, जिन्होंने आपको इस दुनिया में लाया, ने आपकी रक्षा की, जब आप कमजोर और कमजोर थे, आपको खिलाया, पहनाया, सिखाया और आपका पालन-पोषण किया, आपके दादा-दादी ने आपके माता-पिता के लिए समान कर्तव्यों का पालन किया।

पूर्वजों का कर्ज चुकाएं।

तो यह कर्ज कैसे चुकाया जाता है?

इस संसार में जो कुछ भी करता है वह अपने परिवार और अपने पूर्वजों की प्रसिद्धि और महिमा को बढ़ाना चाहिए।

आपके पूर्वज आपके सभी प्रयासों में आपकी मदद करने के लिए उत्सुक हैं और दिवंगत आत्माएं ऐसा करने में सक्षम हैं।

हालाँकि, उन्हें हम सभी से एक अपेक्षा है और वह है उनके सूक्ष्म, अदृश्य शरीर में आपके घरों की वार्षिक यात्राओं के दौरान उनके नाम पर दान के कार्य करना।

आस्था का शुद्ध कार्य।

आपको इस अनोखे हिंदू अनुष्ठान में विश्वास करने की आवश्यकता नहीं है क्योंकि यह विशुद्ध रूप से हिंदी में ‘श्रद्धा’ नामक आस्था पर आधारित है।

इसलिए, वार्षिक पूर्वज पूजा का दूसरा नाम ‘श्रद्ध’ है, जो श्रद्धा से किया जाए वही श्राद्ध है.

श्राद्ध पक्ष में क्या करना चाहिए?

१- नित्य कौए को खीर ओर पूरी अथवा केवल तिल मिश्रित जल अर्पित करें.

२- नजदीकी पीपल के पेड़ के नीचे जल अर्पित करें।

३- गरीब और जरूरतमंद लोगों को यथा शक्ति दान करे।

४- अपने पितृ निमित तर्पण और श्राद्ध करे जिसमे भगवद गीता का पाठ, भजन संध्या एवम यज्ञ करे.

श्राद्ध पक्ष में दान एवम अनुष्ठान हेतु संपर्क करें 

तारीख एवम तिथि.

Then Indra told Karna because he gave these objects as their whole life charity but never donated food to their ancestors. On which Karna replied that he was not aware of ancestors. Upon hearing this Indra agreed to give one chance to Karna to Earth for a period of sixteen days so that he could cook food in the memory of her ancestors and donate.
After receiving 16 day’s Karna Use this opportunity to give peace to ancestors and also it has benefited him in Pitru lok.
