Perform Anagha Vratam
Anaghashtami vratha can be performed on Margasira bahula ashtami or on any bahula ashtami of any month.The most important day for this worship is the Margasira krishna paksa ashtami – the eighth day of the dark fortnight of the month of Margasirsa (comes in December). In case one cannot perform on the eighth day of the dark fortnight it may be done in the other fortnight, or on any day of the month. His Holiness Sri Ganapathi Sachchidananda Swamiji, instructs all devotees to perform the pooja at least once a year without fail and with utmost devotion. Lord Dattatreya gave the initiation of Anagha Vratam to Karthaviryarjuna way back in Krita Yuga. Anagha vratam was performed by one and all and there was prosperity and it was a golden age. In Treta Yuga, King Dasharatha and Sri Rama also performed this puja. In Dwapara Yuga, Sri Krishna spread the message of Anagha vratam by initiating this to Dharmaraja and people of his kingdom.
