Rituals Unique to the Month:

During the month of Purattasi, special prayers are said at the Srirangam Ranganathaswamy Temple.

Another myth says that Lord Saneeswara (Shani) loses his powers in the month of Puratasi, making it easy to avoid his bad effects.

On Purattasi Saturday, people who love Lord Venkateswara only eat one meal. During the month, some devotees only eat food that is made from plants.

The month of Puttarasi begins on September 18 and ends on October 17.

Why Purattasi Month is Important:

In Purattasi Masam, it is said that Lord Venkateswara came to earth. Lord Vishnu’s followers think that Puratasi is the best time to thank Lord Vishnu for keeping the world safe. In Hinduism, people think that Lord Vishnu keeps things going.

On Saturdays, men draw on their foreheads a symbol of Lord Vishnu’s feet called Naamum, while women choose to draw a red dot instead. Every Saturday, hymns to Lord Vishnu are chanted.

A lot of people go to Lord Vishnu temples, and special flags with a Garuda on them are flown in them.
