To those folks who are fasting, wish you the best of luck and success in your fasting.
If you cannot fast, avoid garlic, onions and non vegetarian food during these 9 days.
Please chant Gayatri maha mantra during this time. Gayatri is Vedmata, Vishwamata, Devmata. In the Geeta, Krishna bhagwan says, in seasons, I am spring, in snakes, I am Vasuki, in mantras, I am Gayatri. Gayatri mantra leads our intellect to a righteous path.
