Скачать или смотреть 🔥 Naraka Chaturdashi 2025: The Second Day of Dipavali in the Padma Purana 🔥

🌅 Cleanse the body, awaken the soul, and ignite the light of liberation! 🌅

According to the Padma Purana (Uttara Khanda, Chapter 122), the second day of the Five Days of Dipavali is known as Naraka Chaturdashi — a sacred day dedicated to spiritual purification, victory over darkness, and freedom from sin. This day celebrates Lord Krishna’s triumph over the demon Narakasura, symbolizing the conquest of ignorance and evil by divine wisdom.​

💫 Spiritual Significance:
Shiva tells Kartikeya that those “scared of sins” should rise early on this day and bathe before sunrise. The holy bath, infused with herbs like apāmārga and prapunnāṭa, cleanses not just the body but the very spirit. Whoever observes this ritual, says the Purana, “does not see Yama’s world” — meaning they are freed from suffering and rebirth in hell.​

🛁 How to Celebrate Naraka Chaturdashi:

Take a sacred pre-dawn bath using herbal twigs (apāmārga, prapunnāṭa) while reciting mantras for purity. ✨

Chant the names of Yama — Dharmaraja, Vaivasvata, Kala, Citragupta — and offer libations of water in his honor. 💧

Light diyas (lamps) in temples, courtyards, gardens, and even wells to remove darkness from all realms of life. 🪔

Offer prayers in Yama’s name and dedicate lights to Naraka, destroying sin and fear within.

In the evening, illuminate every corner of your home — from the front yard to the rooftops — spreading the divine flame of renewal. 🌠

🌿 Fun Fact:
Did you know? On this day, Goddess Lakshmi is believed to reside in oil and the River Ganga in water, making the ritual bath especially auspicious! Cleansing with these sacred elements invites divine grace and protection for the year ahead.​

💥 Why This Day Matters:
Naraka Chaturdashi isn’t merely about cleaning the house — it’s about cleansing the soul. It marks freedom from inner darkness and a fresh awakening of cosmic light. Lighting a lamp on this day is said to bring the radiance of Vishnu’s compassion into every home.

🌼 Let this Naraka Chaturdashi be your spiritual reset — bathe away worries, light your inner flame, and rise renewed for the coming year.
