What not to do during Chhath Puja?

Chhath Puja is a special festival of worship of Sun God and Chhathi Maiya. Making some mistakes during this time may reduce the virtue of worship. Let's find out what not to do during this time.

Keeping the fast incomplete

Not completing the fast in Chhath Puja or breaking it prematurely is not considered auspicious. This may reduce the importance of worship.

Worship without reverence

It is not auspicious to worship only for the sake of showing off. Worship Lord Surya and Chhathi Maiya with all your heart and devotion.

Negligence in cleanliness

It is very important to keep the ghat and place of worship clean. Dirt or inattention affects the sanctity of worship.

Non-compliance with the rules

The time of Anka, Arghya and Astachal Arghya has special significance in Chhath Puja. It is important to do them on time.

Forgetting the contents of the fast

Not keeping fruits, thekua, flowers and other worship materials fully prepared can hinder the puja. In such a situation, prepare in advance.

Unnecessary noise or busyness

It is considered wrong to distract attention and disturb peace on mobile or other activities during worship. The entire focus should be on worship.

Worship in an unhealthy condition

Fasting hard without preparation or advice can be harmful if health is poor. Take care of your body.
