According to Hindu Sanatana Dharam, Pushkaralu of 12 chosen sacred rivers is observed on specific days and times dependent on Brihaspati’s (Jupiter’s) planetary position. As Jupiter enters a particular zodiac sign for the first time in a continuous 12-day period, Pushkaram is observed for that particular holy river. A particular river’s Pushkaram repeats every 12 years because there are 12 zodiac signs.

All the gods (Brahmaadi Devatalu), all great rishis (sages), pitru devatas (ancestors), and all the rivers (teerthas), including the Holy River Ganges, are said to enter into the rivers and become energized and power-packed when Brihaspati and Pushkara remain in association during the Pushkaralu in the specific river. Take a dip in the river and drink it in with your spirit. All these attaining for Salvation or Moksha

The Ganga is preparing for a significant celebration that occurs once every 12 years. The kshetras of Gangotri, Gangasagar, Haridwar, Badrinath, Kedarnath, Varanasi, and Allahabad are all decorated with flowers during those twelve days.

When Pushkara Raju (the King of Pushkaras), and Brihaspathi (Guru – Jupiter), arrive at Ashwini Nakshatra Mesha Rashi, Ganga Pushkaras officially begins. The most auspicious Pushkarams are the Ganga Pushkarams. There are 64 snan ghats for Ganga Pushkara snan in Varanasi. Manikarnika Ghat is the most significant of them all.

2023 Ganga Pushkaralu Location and Bathing Ghats

The Religious Ghats are riverfront stairs in Varanasi that lead to the banks of the Ganges. The city is home to 88 ghats. Two ghats are used only as cremation places, but the majority of the ghats are bathing and puja ritual ghats. After 1700 AD, while the city was a part of the Maratha Empire, the majority of Varanasi’s ghats were constructed.

However, The Marathas, Shindes (Scindias), Holkars, Bhonsles, and Peshwes are the current ghats’ patrons (Peshwas). While many ghats are privately held, many of them are connected to myths or tales. A well-liked tourist attraction is the Ganges boat trip over the ghats in the morning.
