Skanda Sashti Dates 2023 Tamil Calendar

Sashti Viratham Uses

Sashti viratham is a fast observed by Hindus to please the god Muruga (or Karthikeya). During this fasting, devotees vow to abstain from non-vegetarian food and even avoid consuming alcohol. Additionally, it is also believed that praying at one’s local temple during sashti viratham will bring immense mercy, peace, and prosperity in life. Another major reason that people opt for this religious ritual is to help reduce or remove their debts or sin they have committed against man or God. It can also be used as an offering of gratitude towards certain gods and other divine forces.

Is Sashti a Good Day?

That depends on the situation. Traditionally, it is a day associated with fasting and religious worship so those observing such practices would consider it a good day. For others, they may take advantage of the fact that most businesses would be closed due to the holiday in order to do something out of their daily routine or relax for a day. Ultimately, how you approach Sashti can determine if it’s considered a good or bad day for you.

Kirthigai Viradham is a special festival celebrated in Tamil Nadu.

This festival is dedicated to Lord Muruga, the six-faced deity and son of Shiva. The day marks the victory of Lord Muruga over Soorapadan and his army of demons. People fast throughout the day and offer prayers to Lord Muruga at temples. Various cultural programs are organized in homes as well as temples on this day where people enact traditional stories related to Lord Muruga’s life. Groundnut sweets are exchanged among family members and friends which serve as prasadam for worshipping God during the pooja ceremony.

Traditional dances like Karagam and Mayilattom are performed with great enthusiasm during Pradosham hours or immediately after sunset when devotees from all walks of life gather together near local shrines to seek blessings from Lord Muruga. Each shrine will have its unique celebration style but all made colorful by lighting traditional brass lamps called Deepakkal just prior to dusk time that illuminates their minds too along with advancing spiritual devotion within them forever…
