During the forthcoming Kharmas, astrologer Praduman Suri has wisely cautioned everyone, advising against starting any auspicious activities between March 14 and April 13.
Understanding Kharmas:
Kharmas marks the beginning of the lunar month, commencing on March 14 when the Sun enters Pisces and concluding on April 13.
The Mythological Connection:
In Sanskrit, Kharmas is derived from ancient mythological tales featuring Lord Surya, who grants his horses respite by leading them to a pond during this time. To maintain cosmic order, Surya positions the horses ahead of his chariot, symbolizing a slower pace that affects auspicious endeavors negatively.
Recommendations for Kharmas:
- Charity: Donate money or goods to the needy as much as possible until April 13.
- Religious Pilgrimages: Perform religious pilgrimages during Kharmas.
- Ghee Lamp: Light a ghee lamp daily in front of the tulsi plant.
- Virtuous Deeds: Perform virtuous deeds and remember the divine. Any auspicious activity performed after spending Kharmas in daily tulsi worship and charity will be more fruitful.
