Today marks the holy occasion of Ganga Dussehra, celebrated annually on the tenth day (Dashami Tithi) of the Shukla Paksha in the month of Jyeshtha, as per the Hindu calendar.

On this sacred day, devotees across the country take a holy dip in the River Ganga, perform special prayers, and engage in charitable acts to seek blessings. The day is believed to be highly auspicious for spiritual purification and attracting divine grace.

Bring These Items Home For Good Fortune:

According to astrological expert Anish Vyas, bringing certain spiritually significant items into the home on Ganga Dussehra can attract prosperity and drive away negativity. Here's what you should consider bringing home today:

  • Holy Ganga Water (Ganga Jal):The River Ganga is revered as a divine mother in Hinduism. Bringing home Ganga Jal on this day and sprinkling it throughout the house is said to cleanse the environment of negativity and invite peace and prosperity.
  • Tulsi Plant:Scriptures highlight the sacredness of the Tulsi (Holy Basil) plant. Bringing a Tulsi plant home today is believed to attract the blessings of Goddess Lakshmi and help remove financial difficulties. If you already have a Tulsi plant at home, offer water after bathing and light a ghee lamp near it in the evening.
  • Coconut (Shreephal):Considered a symbol of Goddess Lakshmi, coconut is known as 'Shreephal' in scriptures. Bringing a coconut home on Ganga Dussehra is said to remove financial scarcity and bring auspiciousness to your home.
  • White-Coloured Offerings for Lord Shiva:As per religious belief, it was on Ganga Dussehra that the holy Ganga descended to Earth through the locks of Lord Shiva. Hence, purchasing white items such as milk and curd and using them to perform Abhishek (ritual pouring) on a Shivling is considered extremely beneficial. This act is believed to invoke blessings from both Goddess Ganga and Lord Shiva.
