Chandra Stotram And Chandra Kavacham on the Occasion of Chandra Darshan
Take a look at chandra stotram and chandra kavacham on the occasion of chandra darshan
Chandra darshan is an auspicious ritual in the Hindu community. Every month, the new moon or the crescent moon is sighted and worshipped by the Hindus. In the month of June of 2017, the Chandra Darshan will fall on the 25th. The best time for Chandra darshan is just after sunset.
Chandra darshan is thought to be very auspicious and is believed to bring prosperity to the people who observe the ritual. Hindus keep fasts and do not eat or drink anything for the day. They first take darshan of the crescent moon and then worship the Moon God. Only then, they break the fast and consume anything.
On the occasion of Chandra Darshan, we bring to you two of the most powerful stotras dedicated to the Moon God. These can be chanted on the Chandra Darshan day or may be even chanted by people who are suffering from the ill effects of the Chandra graha in their birth chart. Chanting these stotras will bring you good fortune and prosperity.
