The significance of Bhadrapada — Lord Ganesha & Krishna
Bhadrapada, at the tail of the monsoon, carries some of the year's biggest observances — Krishna's birth at Janmashtami, Ganesha's installation at Ganesh Chaturthi, and the ten days that end at Anant Chaturdashi. Its second, waning fortnight is Pitru Paksha, given wholly to the ancestors through tarpan and shraddh.
Rituals of Bhadrapada
- Ganesh sthapana and ten days of aarti to Anant Chaturdashi

- Hartalika Teej — the nirjala Shiva-Parvati vrat

Bhadrapada 2064 — Frequently Asked Questions
When does Bhadrapada Maas 2064 start?
In North India (Purnimanta calendar) Bhadrapada runs from Wednesday, 27 August 2064 to Thursday, 25 September 2064. In Amanta-calendar regions it runs Friday, 12 September 2064 to Friday, 10 October 2064.
Why do Bhadrapada dates differ in North and South India?
Because the two regions follow different lunar calendars. In the Purnimanta calendar (North India) a month ends on the Purnima, so it starts about 15 days earlier than in Amanta.
