Important tithis in Vaisakha

 

The auspicious tithis for the month of Vaisakha are Chaitra Sankranti (if

amavasya), shukla tritiya and shukla ekadashi. Chaitra Sankranti Amavasya is

especially favourable towards pitri shraddha. Shukla tritiya is better known

as Akshay Tritiya, as vratas and worship done on this day never get depleted

in any way.

 

Akshay literally means, that which does not erode. Vishnu himself had told

King Kirtiman of Kashi (Varanasi), that Akshay Tritiya is the ultimate tithi

of the three worlds. No other tithi could compare to it. The worshipper

could easily escape the cycle of Kalachakra and attain liberation. “The way,

merely by remembering my lotus feet, sins are destroyed, similarly, Vaisakha

destroys millions and millions of accumulated paapa.”

 

Benefits of worship of the pitris, daana and achievement of moksha are

easily attainable on this day. The next in hierarchy for the month of

Vaisakha are a triad of tithis known as the Pushkarini tithis. These are

shukla dwadashi, shukla trayodashi and shukla chaturdashi. Together with

pournamasya, they vibrate with an auspiciousness, which is unsurpassable.

 

Shukla dwadashi is so glorious that it is compared to the brilliance of a

billion suns and moons blazing together. On Pushkarini tithis and

pournamasya, the great Lord himself, in his address to King Kirtiman,

advises worshipping Madhusudana with tulasi and flowers and listening to the

Gita and the Vishnu Sahasranama. This will grant long life, remove disease

and eradicate the fear of death.

 

 

Vaisakha is the month for listening to and thinking about the greatness of

Vishnu. Even those who are irreligious and have sinful ways can achieve

salvation by praying during this month. Ultimately Vaisakha gives the

worshipper the “nearness” or company of Vishnu. Mahadeva had spent a hundred

years in trying to describe the greatness of Vaisakha to Parvati, but even

such a time period proved to be insufficient for expounding the supremacy of

this noble month.
