In Hinduism, the full moon date of the month of Magh is considered important. It is also called Maghi Purnima. On this day, bathing in the Ganges, especially at the Sangam of Tirtharaj Prayag, is considered auspicious. Along with bathing in the Ganges on Maghi Purnima, charity and worship of Lord Vishnu and Mother Lakshmi also have special significance. Bathing in the Ganges and worshiping on this date brings prosperity, happiness, and peace in life. This year Maha Kumbh is being organized in Prayagraj after 144 years, which has increased the importance of Maghi Purnima even more.
For the first time in Maha Kumbh 2025, it is being seen that even after major baths like Makar Sankranti, Mauni Amavasya and Basant Panchami, crores of devotees are reaching Prayagraj Sangam to take a dip of faith in Maghi Purnima. Let us know the auspicious time for the Magh Purnima bath and what work is mandatory.

According to the Vedic calendar, Maghi Purnima is on Wednesday, February 12. The full moon date of Shukla Paksha of Magh month is starting from 6:55 pm on 11 February and it will end on 12 February 2025 at 07:22 pm. According to Udayatithi, Maghi Purnima is 12 February.
Auspicious time for bathing and donation on Magh Purnima
There is a combination of Saubhagya and Shobhan Yoga on Magh Purnima. Bathing in Brahma Muhurta on the occasion of Purnima is considered very auspicious. There are three auspicious times for bathing on Magh Purnima. The first time is from 5:19 am to 6:10 am. The second time is from 7:02 am to 8:25 am. At the same time, the third time is from 8:25 am to 9:49 am. Bathing in these times will be considered very fruitful.
Do charity after bathing
Bathing in the Ganges river on Magh Purnima is considered very auspicious. Therefore, one should wake up early in the morning on this day and bathe in the holy river during Brahma Muhurta. It is believed that doing so leads to progress, virtue, and salvation. Donating food grains, money, sesame seeds, jaggery, and ghee is also considered extremely beneficial on this day. Apart from this, Shradh, Tarpan, and Pinddaan are also organized for the peace of the souls of their ancestors. Feeding the poor on this day brings special benefits. By doing this, all kinds of sufferings and sins are eliminated and auspicious results are obtained.
