On the day of Vijaya Dashami, today, the idols of the Goddess of the festival should be disposed of in rivers and ponds as per religious rituals (Bisarjan) from 09:25 am and the auspicious hour for receiving Tika is 09: 57 am, according to Nepal Calendar Determination Committee. [break]
Although the auspicious hour for receiving Prasad of Devi has been fixed 09: 57 am today as per the requirement of the calendar, the entire day after the immersion of the Goddess is auspicious for that purpose, according to the Committee.
The worship of Sri Durga Bhawani at Dashainghars over nine days concludes formally on the day of Bijaya Dashami after the Abhishekh or sprinkling of holy water takes place marking the beginning of Tika.
People receive Tika and Jamara till the full moon day. Tika and Jamara are considered the auspicious gifts of the goddess Nawa Durga and they signify prosperity.
It is believed that one need not seek an auspicious hour if one undertakes any new assignment, campaign or journey on the auspicious day of Vijaya Dashami.
The Vijaya Dashami festival is celebrated in commemoration of the victory of truth over evil and the victory of divine forces over demonic forces.
