Every month of the Hindu calendar has a lord — except the rare thirteenth, the Adhika Maas, born an orphan and shunned as the “impure month.” The Puranas tell how this rejected month went in grief to Bhagavan Vishnu, who claimed it, gave it His own name — Purushottam — and made it the most fruitful month of all.

Ganga Dussehra falls on Monday, May 25, 2026 — commemorating the day Maa Ganga descended from Vaikuntha to the earth through the millennia-long tapasya of King Bhagiratha. The full account from the Valmiki Ramayana, snan vidhi, dana traditions, mantras, and the teaching of sustained sincerity.
