Daan

There are many festivals and Vrat (fast) on which Daan (donation) is supposed to be customary or essential or good for the observer. here are some days on which Daan is auspicious.

--Daan given on Vaishaakh Shukla Teej (Akshaya Teej) is immortal. In fact everything done on tht day is immortal, that is why one must do all good work on that day, such as Vrat, Daan, Poojaa, Jap etc; never do any bad wok on that day otherwise that wil also be immortal.

--If, on Vaishaakh Poornimaa, after taking bath, one keeps fast, and worships 5 or 7 Braahman with black sesame seeds and honey with the feeling that Dharm Raaj will be happy with that. This destroys his all sins committed in the whole life.

--If, on Vaishaakh Poornimaa, somebody donates a pitcher full of water along with Ann and Ghee, he becomes free from all kinds of fear.

--If, on Maagh Amaavasyaa, somebody donates anything to a Tapaswee Braahman in the name of Vishnu, his all sins committed in seven lives are immediately destroyed.

--If, on Krishn Paksh Ashtamee, or Chaturdashee or Amaavasyaa, somebody, after taking bath and feeding a Braahman, worships Shiv, he never comes back in this world.

--Who keeps fast on Ekaadashee and feeds Braahman on Dwaadashee, he attains Parampad. Shukla Paksh Dwaadashee is Vishnu's Tithi, so one should worship Vishnu by all means on that day.
