Importance of the festival/event
|
|
Naga / Garuda Panchami is a traditional worship of snakes or serpents observed by Hindus throughout India, Nepal and other countries. The worship is offered on the fifth day of bright half of Lunar month of Shravana (July/August), according to the Hindu calendar. The abode of snakes is believed to be patala loka (the seven realms of the universe located below the earth) and lowest of them is also called Naga-loka, the region of the Nagas. As part of the creation force, their blessings are sought for the welfare of the family. Performing abhishekam and puja to Naga Devatha by qualified priests will rectify Kuja and Kala Sarpa dosha’s and is highly beneficial for the welfare of the family.
