Namaste and welcome to the vibrant celebration of Chhath Puja in the heart of Bihar! 🌅

Chhath Puja Day 1, Nahay Khay 🌊🍲:

Chhath Puja ka pehla din, sabse shuru hota hai Nahay Khay ke saath! Yeh din vrat ke mahatva ko aur bhi adhik mahsus karne ka ek avasar hai. Din ki shuruaat hoti hai snan se, jab devotees snan ghat par pahunchte hain. Nahane ke liye saaf jal ka istemal karte hain, jo pavitra ganga ya yamuna se laaya gaya hota hai. Snan ke samay, suraj ugne se pehle hi nahana shubh mana jata hai.

Is din, vrat karne wale log maun vrat bhi rakh sakte hain, jisme bolna aur muskurana bhi mana hai. Nahane ke baad, prasad taiyar kiya jata hai jo kachori, chawal, aur gur se bana hota hai. Is prasad ko khane se pehle, surya dev ki aradhana ki jaati hai, jisme roshni ke diye, sugandhit dhoop, aur phool-shastra ka istemal hota hai.

Nahay Khay ka din vrat ke liye devi Surya ki kripa ko prapt karne ka ek shubh avasar hai. Is din, log apne man, vachan, aur karma ko pavitrata ke saath sanjoya karte hain. Chhath Puja ke iss pavan avsar par, sabhi ko nahane ka anand lena aur svargiya saundarya mein dooba hua mahol mahsus karna chahiye! 🌅🙏🏼
