Sri Somvati Amavasya
Jai sri Ganesha,
Today it is Sri Somvati Amavasya, new moon which falls on Monday
is celebrated as Somvati Amavasya,
Amavasya itself is a subject of special religious practice
and charity,
Holy dip in celestial stream with faith and submission truly
helps one to attain inner purity; offering in sacred fire paves the path for
easy journey here after,
Amavasya represents
the darkness of night though the subject
relates to Sun, solar eclipse falls on Amavasya only, Amavasya is represented
by the Pitar Dev{god], presiding deity of departed souls, offering food to Brahmans
proves fruitful to attain blessings from Sir Pitar Dev, food that essentially consist
of Kheer{sweet rice that cooked in milk alone},
On Somvati Amavasya if one worship Papal tree at the bank of
any celestial stream or at temple makes one to attain repeated chance for prosperous
future, indeed faith is the key unto subject,
May Lord bless all,
Thanks please
