The sacred month of Margashirsha, also known as Agahan, has begun, a time devoted to Lord Krishna, who said in the Shrimad Bhagavad Gita, "I am Margashirsha among the months." Observing rituals like bathing, donating, and lighting lamps during this month is believed to absolve sins and pave the way for salvation.
Besides these practices, chanting specific mantras in Margashirsha is considered highly beneficial for career advancement and prosperity. Here are key mantras to recite and associated rituals to perform for desired outcomes:
-
For good income and job progress, chant Om Govindaya Namah and gift clothes to young children.
