DESCRIPTION:

Adhik Maas, also known as Purushottam Maas, Mal Maas, or Malimmacha, is an additional month in the Hindu lunar calendar that occurs approximately every 32.5 months. The Hindu calendar is lunar, with each month lasting about 29.5 days. However, the solar year is about 365.25 days long, which creates a discrepancy between the lunar and solar calendars. Adhik Maas synchronizes the calendars, which is added every 2.5-3 years.

Adhik Maas is considered a highly auspicious time for religious and spiritual practices. Many devotees use this time to engage in fasting, prayers, meditation, and charity, and rewards for these activities deliver exponentially during Adhik Maas. Various religious rituals, including pujas and yagnas, are also performed during this time.

Hindus believe Lord Vishnu presides over Adhik Maas. Devotees often perform special pujas and visit temples dedicated to Lord Vishnu to seek his blessings.

Auspicious activities, such as weddings and house-warming ceremonies, are generally avoided during Adhik Maas, a time for self-improvement, spiritual growth, and reflection, rather than material pursuits.
