There is also a practice of doing charity and charity on the full moon day, by doing so a person gets happiness, peace and splendor. From today onwards, the month of Vaishakh comes to an end, so those who are not able to take bath in the holy rivers for this whole month, they take a bath in the Ganges on this day, by doing so a person attains virtue.

Special worship of Lord Vishnu and Maa Lakshmi

Those who are not able to take bath in the Ganges, they should bathe by pouring Ganges water in their homes today. After this, after wearing clean clothes, offer Arghya to the Sun God and pour sesame seeds in running water. Special worship of Lord Vishnu and Mother Lakshmi is done on this day. Since today is only Monday, so today worship of Bholenath should also be done and water should be offered to Shivling.

These are the teachings of Lord Buddha

• He who conquers himself is the greatest victor.
• One can conquer anger with love, sin by virtue, greed with charity and falsehood with truth.
• The fragrance of a flower never goes against the wind, but the fragrance of human virtue spreads everywhere.
• It is easy to conquer a thousand warriors, but the one who conquers himself is the true victor.
• Desire is the root of all sorrow.
• Hate is never less than hatred, it is only from love.
• The accumulation of sin is the root of suffering.
