From spiritual perspective, the significance of Poornima (full moon) and Amavasya (no moon) is so great that, one might fall short of words to describe it. Both these auspicious das are complete in themselves. One is Poornima which is full and complete with infinite light and the other is Amavasya which is also complete and brimming with darkness. If we look at them from a spiritual angle both are infinite, same as the great infinite sky- Mahakash. As per the Indian Hindu calendar 30 days of the month are divided into 15-15 days as per the cycle of the moon, and they are called- Shukla paksha and Krishna Paksha. The last day of the Shukla Paksha is called Poornima (Full moon) and the last day of Krishna Paksha is called Amavasya. Amavasya falling in the month of Bhadra holds all the more spiritual significance in itself. Out of the 12 Amavasyas falling in one year this Amavasya has been given the status of queen of all. It is also popularly known as Alok Amavasya, kushgrahini Amavasya, Kaushiki Amavasya and Bhadra Amavasya. In the life of Saadhak this day is very vital, as “Mahamaya Jagat Janani, Brahmamayi Maa” is worshipped with great devotion, seeking her blessings for Brahma-gyaan (ultimate Knowledge). This is the reason saadhak eagerly waits for this day for the entire year.
