Have A Blessed Sharad Purnima

Blog by-Dr Jaya Kumar.

SHARAD PURNIMA' according to Hindu mythology is a very auspicious day to perform various religious rituals wholeheartedly.
It is believed that on this day, 'Lord Krishna' along with the Gopis performed the 'Maha-Raslilla', a dance of the Divine.



It is believed that on this day the 'Moon Beams', the rays of the beautiful Moon have special therapeutic healing powers.
Following this belief, the sweet-rice 'kheer' dish is made on this day. The procedure to make it therapeutic is by keeping it under the moonlight, whole night.
Then early in the morning, the 'Therapeutic Holy Kheer' is eaten with full trust and the faith of it being a 'Blessed Kheer'.



On this day the moon is closer to the earth and therefore it's beam has cosmic powers which come directly to our mother earth.
Hindu epics also believe that on this day Goddess Lakshmi takes a round of the whole earth and blesses all.
"Cleanliness is next to Godliness '.
A clean environment, a clean body, a pure heart and a clear soul even makes God happy is a universal belief and the truth.
Let us celebrate every festival with its full fervour and flavour.
In India, we have many festivals to enjoy and celebrate.
The purpose behind celebrating every festival should be to develop a loving bond among each other.


We should feel blessed and fortunate to be born in this country where we have values, faith, ethics, morals and a beautiful culture which we have to maintain and inculcate in our coming generations.
As a true human being our first religion should be belief in humanity and to understand the in-depth purpose and the logical reason behind celebrating every festival.
Let us spread happiness far and wide this festive season.


The words and views expressed in my blogs are personal and are my original work of thoughts.
