FAQs

Dharma includes proper timing: certain auspicious rites are deferred to preserve ritual fitness aligned with sacred seasons.

The teaching occurs within the Hāṭakeśvara-kṣetra māhātmya that frames seasonal observances.

Avoid major yajñas and postpone saṃskāras such as cūḍākaraṇa during the Lord’s śayana period.
