Bhalachandra Sankashti Chaturthi Rituals
Sankashti Chaturthi is an extremely powerful day to worship Lord Ganesha – The remover of obstacles. It is celebrated every month on the 4th day after the full moon during Krishna Paksha (the waning phase of the moon). It is also called Sankata Hara (remover of obstacles) Chathurthi.
During each month a different form of Ganesha is worshipped. This month the form of Lord Ganesha to be worshipped is Bhalachandra (One who is moon crested).
Rituals
- Chant the mantra – “Aum Bhalachandraya Namaha” 108 times or more. Keep a strong intention that all your obstacles will be removed by Bhalachandra Ganesha today.
- Listen to Ganesha Atharvasirsha in the morning and evening just before Moonrise.
- During Moonrise please bow down, pray, and honor the Moon by looking at it.
- You can observe a simple fast if you would like. You can finish yours fast after the moon-sighting ritual. Observing this fast is believed to reduce problems as Ganesha symbolizes the removal of all obstacles and the supreme lord of intelligence.
Karma - Since punished therefore guilty. Since super rich therefore innocent.
