Importance Of Kharna Puja

Kharn holds special significance in Chhath Puja. It is the second day of the four-day Chhath festival. On this day, women, keeping cleanliness and purity in mind, prepare rice kheer and sweet roti on a mud stove after bathing. According to religious beliefs, the arrival of Chhathi Maiya (Goddess Shashti) is celebrated on this day, making it an important part of the Chhath festival.

Kharna 2024 Time

The auspicious timing for Kharna Puja will be from 5:29 PM to 7:48 PM on November 6. During this time, women observing the fast should perform the Kharna ritual.

Kharna Puja Vidhi

On Kharna Puja day, after bathing, the devotee should begin preparing the prasad. First, offer Arghya to Lord Sun. Then, prepare Kheer with sathi rice and jaggery on a mud stove (Kharna Kheer Prasad). Along with this, make sweet roti and keep ripe bananas. Offer these offerings to Chhathi Maiya first, light incense and lamps, and then, at the auspicious time, partake in the Kharna prasad. After consuming the prasad, the devotee should not eat anything else. The fast is broken only after offering the Usha Arghya (Surya Arghya).
