Dates are for New Delhi and use the tithi running at local sunrise. A tithi can start and end at any hour, so the table also gives its start and end time. When Purnima is running at sunrise on two consecutive days, both are shown; follow the day your tradition prefers.

Puja vidhi: how to do the puja

  1. Bathe early; a bath in a holy river and charity (daan) on Purnima are especially meritorious.
  2. Perform the Satyanarayan puja: set up a chowki and kalash with a picture of Satyanarayan, and offer panchamrit, tulsi, fruit and panjiri or sooji sheera as prasad.
  3. Read the Satyanarayan katha (five short chapters) with the family.
  4. In the evening, offer arghya to the Moon with water, milk, rice and white flowers.
  5. Many keep a fast until moonrise.

Katha: The Satyanarayan katha, in short

Narada asked Vishnu how people in the Kali Yuga could be free of suffering, and Vishnu told him of the Satyanarayan vrat, the worship of God as Truth. A poor Brahmin of Kashi kept it and prospered; a woodcutter heard of it and his life changed too.

A merchant promised to keep the vrat if he had a child, then put it off again and again, and lost everything until he remembered his promise and kept it. The katha's lesson is simple: keep the promises you make to God, and never refuse prasad.

Aarti: Om Jai Jagdish Hare

ॐ जय जगदीश हरे, स्वामी जय जगदीश हरे। भक्त जनों के संकट, दास जनों के संकट, क्षण में दूर करे॥ ॐ जय जगदीश हरे॥ जो ध्यावे फल पावे, दुःख बिनसे मन का, स्वामी दुःख बिनसे मन का। सुख सम्पत्ति घर आवे, कष्ट मिटे तन का॥ ॐ जय जगदीश हरे॥ मात पिता तुम मेरे, शरण गहूँ मैं किसकी, स्वामी शरण गहूँ मैं किसकी। तुम बिन और न दूजा, आस करूँ मैं जिसकी॥ ॐ जय जगदीश हरे॥ तुम पूरण परमात्मा, तुम अन्तर्यामी, स्वामी तुम अन्तर्यामी। पारब्रह्म परमेश्वर, तुम सब के स्वामी॥ ॐ जय जगदीश हरे॥ तुम करुणा के सागर, तुम पालनकर्ता, स्वामी तुम पालनकर्ता। मैं सेवक तुम स्वामी, कृपा करो भर्ता॥ ॐ जय जगदीश हरे॥ तुम हो एक अगोचर, सबके प्राणपति, स्वामी सबके प्राणपति। किस विधि मिलूँ दयामय, तुमको मैं कुमति॥ ॐ जय जगदीश हरे॥ दीन-बन्धु दुःख-हर्ता, ठाकुर तुम मेरे, स्वामी रक्षक तुम मेरे। अपने हाथ उठाओ, अपनी शरण लगाओ, द्वार पड़ा तेरे॥ ॐ जय जगदीश हरे॥ विषय-विकार मिटाओ, पाप हरो देवा, स्वामी पाप हरो देवा। श्रद्धा भक्ति बढ़ाओ, सन्तन की सेवा॥ ॐ जय जगदीश हरे॥
