Purnima has special significance in Sanatan Dharma. This day is one of the most auspicious days for Hindus. On this day people worship Lord Vishnu, Mother Lakshmi and Chandra Dev. It is believed that fasting on this holy day brings auspicious results and ends all the sorrows of life. According to the Hindu calendar, this time the festival of Sharad Purnima will be celebrated on 16 October (Sharad Purnima 2024 Date). If any kind of worship ritual is done on this day, then its result is obtained immediately. Along with this, happiness comes in life.

Therefore, it is said that for the satisfaction of the ancestors, rituals should be performed in their name on this day and Pitru Chalisa should also be recited. This helps them attain salvation.
