  • Before sunset, the devotees and their entire family reach the pond, river, or riverbank for the Sandhya Arghya. After that, they offer water and milk to Lord Bhaskar (the Sun God).

  • Along with this, worship of Chhathi Maiya is also performed. On the sixth day of Chhath Puja, there is also a tradition of staying awake through the night.

  • On the fourth day, the ritual is completed with the Usha Arghya after offering the Sandhya Arghya to the Sun God on the third day. The baskets and trays with fruits and offerings, which were worshipped on the sixth day, are taken to the riverbank again on the fourth day, where they are offered as part of the Arghya and worshipped.
