    Achala Saptami





    Winter is coming down, The sun (Surya Narayan) has gone in Uttarayana's direction. After the descent begins, many traditions are developed to absorb the energy and speed of the sun. The Tithi of Saptami today is very important and this Saptami is known as Achala Saptami i.e. Rath Saptami and Arogya Saptami.

     This day, which falls on the seventh day of Magh Shukla Paksha, is also believed to be the date of birth of Lord Surya. It is said that fasting and worshiping on this day will bring health, happiness, and positive energy.

     It is believed that the seven horses of Lord Surya would enthrone Lord Surya on the divine chariot/ Rath on this day and start running all year round, hence this tithi is also called Rath Saptami.

    Bratkatha of Achala Saptami
    Durbasa rishi visited lord Krishna and during his visit, Lord Krishna's son Shambha humiliated Durbasa for his weak body and physics. Upon his anger, Rishi Durbasa cursed Shambha to have ailments and afflictions in his body.
    Later, realizing the mistake of his son, Lord Krishna asked his son to fast on Achala Saptami and rever lord Sun.
    Later, the son grants him rid of all afflictions.
    Achala Saptami thus became more important to mankind.

     Best wishes to all on today's special tithi.

    Hamro Patro - Connecting Nepali Communities
    Hamro Patro is one of the first Nepali app to include Nepali Patro, launched in 2010. We started with a Nepali Calendar mobile app to help Nepalese living abroad stay in touch with Nepalese festivals and important dates in Nepali calendar year. Later on, to cater to the people who couldn’t type in Nepali using fonts like Preeti, Ganesh and even Nepali Unicode, we built nepali mobile keyboard called Hamro Nepali keyboard.
