Bhadrapada Purnima 2023: When to observe Purnima Vrat 28 or 29, 2023?
Bhadrapada Purnima, also known as Bhado Purnima, holds great religious significance among Hindus. It marks the end of the Bhadrapada month and the beginning of the Ashwina month. On this auspicious day, people perform various rituals such as Pitra Puja and Pitra Tarpan, and can invite Brahmins to their homes for the ceremonies. Taking a bath in the Ganga river is considered highly rewarding, and offering food, water, and clothes to Brahmins is considered meritorious. Other rituals include offering water to Lord Surya and reading holy books like the Bhagavad Gita and Ramayana.
