What is Amavaysa?
Amavaysa is one of the most important and significant periods of the year, despite being the darkest day of the month. Hindu believers all over India perform a variety of significant rituals on this day. In the Hindu calendar, Amavasya (Hindi: अमवस्या, Malayalam: അമാവാസി, Tamil: அமாவாசை, Telugu: అమావాస్৯, Gujarati: અમાવ৾৯৾), or No Moon Day or New Moon Day, is a significant tithi. Amavasya is the lunar month in the Hindu calendar with the least amount of moon visible in the sky. Amavasya happens once a month, and there are twelve of these days without the moon in a year. Additionally, the lunar month’s bright fortnight, or Shukla Paksha, begins on this day.The names and dates of the different Amavasyas in 2025

The 3 most significant amavasyas

According to renowned Hindu sage, and scholar Sri Adi Shankaracharya, one of the three essential traits of a saint is “mauna.”
On this day, many devotees practice one day of mauna vrat, during which they abstain from speaking.

Magh, a Hindu month, is thought to be the best time of year for abstinence and spiritual enlightenment. The following are the customs that devotees observe on the day of Mauni Amavasya:
