Benefits of Karthika Snanam in Karthika Masam

Karthika Masam 2022: Devotees take a holy bath in the month of Karthika. It is one of the holiest months in the year according to the Hindu calendar. Devotees offer patram-pushpam and falam-toyam to Lord Shiva during the Karthika Masam. Most of the devotees take a holy dip in the nearby river and lit lamps.

Before taking a holy dip in the river, just chant these mantras

Namah kamalanabhaya namaste jalasayine |
Namastesthu hrishikesh gruhanarghyam namosthuthe || 
Kartikeham karishyami prataha sannam janardhana | 
Prityartham tava devesh damodar mahasaya || 
Dhyatvaham tavam cha devesh jalesmin snathu mudyataha | 
Tava prasadat papam may damodar vinyasyatu ||
