Sombare aaunshi barta





An episode of Aunshi on Monday goes by and collides with the huge earthquake of January 2, 1990. Let's add the reference to Sombare aaunshi. An earthquake measuring 8.4 on the Richter scale struck Nepal on January 2, 1990, and it was Monday. And in the evening that day, Capricorn, Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Venus, Saturn, and Rahu were in the same zodiac sign.

Even today is Monday. After the earthquake, Aunshi was seen with fear and terror on Monday, but not so, the greatness and importance of Aunshi on Monday has been inseparable and unbreakable for centuries.
Let me explain this to you.

This festival is considered auspicious for bathing or giving alms. Nowadays, devotees travel long distances to visit various pilgrimage stalls only for bathing. According to Hindus, it takes a lot of luck or fortune to get the date of Aunshi on Monday. The characters of Mahabharata also couldn't have this day in their lifetime i.e. Sombare aaunshi.

It is said that the date of Aunshi could not be obtained and controlled.

In mythological times (Pauranic Kaal), the number of Aaunshi on Monday was very low, but with the onset of the Kali Yuga, the number of Sombare aanushi began to increase. It is said that many such Sombare aaunshi fell in Kali Yuga to give devotees more opportunities for salvation and religion. So what do you think about religion and generosity this Monday?

According to the lunar calendar, one Monday falls every seven days and one aaunshi falls every month. But the coincidence of Mondays and aaunshi only happens occasionally. Once or twice a year.
Best wishes
