ಯತಿಗಳಿಗೆ – ಗ್ರಹಣದ ದಿನ ಪಂಚಾಮೃತ, ಫಲಸಮರ್ಪಣೆ, ಹಸ್ತೋದಕಾದಿಗಳು ಇಲ್ಲOn this day we must not do panchamrutha, phalasamarpane, hastodaka for yathigalu, as the yathigalu will be on fasting on the Grahana DayWe must not take food on this day, as Vedarambha starts from sooryodaya itself (i.e.,9 hours before the start of Chandra Grahana,). (For Suryagrahana it should be before 12 hours, before the start of the grahana)There is an exception for sick, pregnant, and aged above people 80 years and children below 8 years, who can take food upto 10.00 am. For others, they should not take any food on this day. They can take food only after moksha of Chandra Grahana Shraddha falling on pournami day – In case of death anniversary falling on the eclipse day, regular shraddha will be performed only after the eclipse is over. If on the grahana day, morning bhojana is permitted, then shraddha can be done on the same day. Otherwise, the shradda to be done after grahana is over. This time they can do it on the same day in the morning.Partial Lunar Eclipse is visible in Asia, Australia. Newzeeland, Chandra Grahan can be seen in entire India.Sparsha – 3.45 pm Madhyakala – 5.30 pmMoksha – Night 7.15 pm Total period 3 hours and 30 minutes As Grahana is visible in India only after suryaasta (i.e., after 6.39pm), we need not do snaana, etc., at 3.45 pm. However, at 6.39pm, we have to take bath, and do all the parayana, japa during the available period of 35 minutes. Once that Grahana moksha time is over, i.e., at 7.15 pm, we have to take bath, and do pooja, naivedya ( Hastodaka not to be done). Then only bhojana can be taken. For those who have to do shraddha, they have to do it after grahana moksha. Local time to be verified in other places :

This will occur only when the sun, earth and the moon are aligned exactly, that will be always on a full moon (Pournami) day.What is Vedaramba? – This is a period after start of which period, we must not take eat/drink any thing. This will be 9 hours prior to Chandra Grahana and 12 hours before Surya Grahana, respectively. Why we are keeping Darba on all the items during Grahana?– Darba is born from the body of Varaha devaru. In Darba, there is sannidhana of Srihari, Brahma and Rudra devaru. So, Darba is always pure. During Grahana, all these items like milk, curds, vegetables, which are being kept will loose their power and becomes unusable. But with the use of Darba being kept on these items, their shuddatwa will be maintained and one can use the same after Grahana also.Kethugrasta Chandragrahana – Who is Kethu? During Samudra Mathana, when Mohini roopi Srihari was distributing the amrutha, one daithya by name Svarbhanu, came in a disguise and sat among the devate’s row. Srihari gave him Amrutha also. At that time Sun and Moon, {ಸೂರ್ಯಚಂದ್ರರು} on seeing that Swarbhanu has come in Devate’s row and taking amrutha, complained to Mohini, when Srihari through his Sudarshana removed the head of that daithya. Actually that daithya had done penance asking for Amrutha to be falling to his mouth. As such, Srihari had allowed Amrutha to be swallowed upto its mouth, but it didn’t enter beyond mouth, Srihari had removed his head. As such, the head of the daithya was fixed to a snake’s body to become “Rahu”, and the other portion without head is called as “Kethu”. To take a revenge on Surya Chandraru, Rahu tries to swallow Surya and Kethu tries to swallow Moon during Surya Grahana and Chandra Grahana respectively. That is why the eclipses are termed as Rahugrasta Suryagrahana and Kethugrasta Chandragrahana. Clothes kept in Madi (ಮಡಿ) before Grahana are not to be used after Grahana. After Grahana, do snaana and clothes to be kept freshly. “ಗ್ರಹಣಪೂರ್ವದಲ್ಲಿ ಒಣಗು ಹಾಕಿದ್ದ ಮಡಿ ಬಟ್ಟೆ ಗ್ರಹಣದ ನಂತರ ಬರುವುದಿಲ್ಲ. ಮತ್ತೆ ಸ್ನಾನಾನಂತರ ಬೇರೆಯಾಗಿ ಒಣಗಿಹಾಕಿಕೊಳ್ಳಬೇಕು.” Rajaswala strees –Even the Rajaswala ladies must observe Grahana snaana – But they must have water poured by somebody to a bucket and from that bucket they must take bath. They must not squeezout . They shall sit in the wet cloth itself and do dhyana. ಸೂತಕೇ ಮೃತಕೇ ಚೈವ ನ ದೋಷೋ ರಾಹುದರ್ಶನೇ | ಸ್ನಾನೇ ನೈಮಿತ್ತಿಕೇ ಪ್ರಾಪ್ತೇ ನಾರೀ ಯದಿ ರಜಸ್ವಲಾ | ಪಾತ್ರಾಂತರಿತೋಯೇನ ಸ್ನಾನಂ ಕೃತ್ವಾ ವ್ರತಂ ಚರೇತ್ | ನ ವಸ್ತ್ರನಿಷ್ಪೀಡನಂ ಕಾರ್ಯಂ ನಾನ್ಯದ್ ವಸ್ತ್ರಂ ಚ ದಾರಯೇತ್ | sootakE mRutakE chaiva na dOShO raahudarshanE | snaanE naimittikE praaptE naarI yadi rajasvalaa | paatraaMtaritOyEna snaanaM kRutvaa vrataM charEt | na vastraniShpIDanaM kaaryaM naanyad vastraM cha daarayEt | Pregnants – It is advisable that the pregnants should not come out during Grahana period, as it may affect the growth of the child.
