Sawan Purnima Date and Time:The full moon date of Sawan month has special religious importance. This date is the last day of the Holy Sawan month dedicated to Lord Shiva, which is celebrated as Sawan Purnima with reverence and devotion. This is the day when the festival of Raksha Bandhan is also celebrated with great gaiety all over the country. The sisters tie a rakhi on the wrist of their brothers and wish them a long life, while the brothers resolve to protect them. However, this year, the fast and bathing of Sawan Purnima will be on different dates, not the same day. In such a situation, it is important to know when to keep the fast, when to take bath and donation, and what are the auspicious times.
According to Drik Panchang, Sawan Purnima Tithi will start on August 8 at 2:12 pm and end on August 9 at 1:24 pm. Since Udaya Tithi is on 9 August, Sawan Purnima will be considered on 9 August.
However, the devotees who keep the fast will observe the fast on August 8, because on this day Chandrodaya will be at 6:42 pm, and it is mandatory to offer arghya to the moon in the full moon fast.
It is considered best for those observing the full moon fast on August 8. On this day, the moon will be worshiped by offering arghya. It is believed that this fast gives mental peace, prosperity and auspicious results.
The virtuous bath and donation will be done on 9 August on Sawan Purnima. It would be very fruitful to take a bath from 4:22 am to 5:04 am in Brahma Muhurta on Sawan Purnima. Apart from this, other major auspicious times are as follows:
Abhijeet Muhurta: 12:00 pm to 12:53 pm
Vijay Muhurta: 2:40 pm to 3:33 pm
Mudhuli Muhurta: 7:06 pm to 7:27 pm
Sarvartha Siddhi Yoga: 5:47 am to 2:23 pm
It is believed that by bathing in holy rivers like Ganga on the day of Sawan Purnima and donating according to the strength, the native attains renewable virtue. This virtuous is considered fruitful for births and happiness, peace and prosperity comes in life.
