అమావాస్య (Amavasya)

Overview

Amavasya is the new moon day, the 15th tithi of Krishna Paksha. The Moon is not visible. While often considered inauspicious for new beginnings, it is the most important day for ancestral worship (pitru karma) and offerings to departed souls.

ఆచరణలో అర్థం

Amavasya is ideal for performing Tarpan (ancestral offerings), visiting temples, and spiritual practices. Avoid starting new ventures. Some people fast and pray for the departed. It's a day for introspection rather than external activities.
