Special evening time for moon darshan and arghya

On the date of full moon, the moon is in its full power, hence worshiping the Moon God and offering Arghya to him in the evening brings pleasant changes in life. According to astrology, by mixing pure water, milk and Akshat in a silver vessel and offering Arghya to the Moon, lunar defects in the horoscope are removed and heaviness in the mind is reduced. The meditation done during this period increases concentration and provides peace of mind. Spending a few moments under the open sky at night and meditating with a calm mind is also very good for your health. When the cool rays of the moon fall directly on the body, restlessness is removed and patience is instilled in the nature.

Special importance of charity and service

The heat of the sun is at its peak in the month of Vaishakh, hence the importance of donation increases even more on this auspicious date. According to the scriptures, donating water in this hot season is considered the greatest and best deed. On the day of Vaishakh Purnima, arranging water for passers-by, giving them cold water to drink or donating an earthen pot to a temple is equivalent to directly serving Lord Vishnu. Apart from this, donating fan, melon or sattu to the needy also provides good results. When we serve selflessly, our old faults start erasing and happiness and peace prevail in the house. It is this charity that makes our lives happy.
