When Does Kharmas 2024 Begin?
This year, Kharmas will begin on December 15, 2024, when the Sun enters the Sagittarius zodiac. During Kharmas, it is customary to offer Tulsi worship, perform Surya Arghya, and worship Lord Vishnu.
Significance Of Tulsi Worship During Kharmas
In Hinduism, Tulsi is considered sacred. Worshipping Tulsi removes obstacles and negative energy from the home and family. During Kharmas, when negative energy is more active, Tulsi worship is the simplest and most effective solution to eliminate it.
Offering water to Tulsi and lighting a lamp in the evening during Kharmas helps in removing doshas. Worshipping Tulsi reduces the malefic effects of planets and brings prosperity and happiness.
Keep These Things In Mind
During Kharmas, you can offer a lamp, water, and incense to Tulsi, but it is forbidden to offer certain items like sindoor or any bridal items. Also, do not pluck Tulsi leaves.
