Purushottam Maas, also known as Adhik Maas or Malmaas, will be observed from Sunday, 17 May 2026 to Monday, 15 June 2026, as explained by Sri Nikhil Chetana Kendra, Hyderabad (Telangana).
The document explains the spiritual significance and origin of Purushottam Maas according to Hindu scriptures. Due to the imbalance caused by lunar and solar calculations, an additional month emerged, initially known as Malmaas. Later, Lord Krishna accepted this month as his own and declared it as Purushottam Maas, granting it supreme spiritual importance. It is mentioned that worship of Radha-Krishna during this month grants divine blessings and residence in Goloka.
The document prescribes several spiritual practices during the month, including:
- Worship of Radha-Krishna Yugala Murti
- Observing silence and fasting
- Akhand Deepa and Rangoli worship
- Donation of sweets (Apupa), clothes, Tambul, and other offerings
- Reading and donating Shrimad Bhagavatam
- Guru worship and Purushottam Yantra sadhana
- Daily mantra japa using sandalwood mala
Special mantras for wealth, prosperity, Lakshmi blessings, and spiritual merit are also provided. The text emphasizes that donations, devotional worship, and disciplined sadhana performed during Purushottam Maas lead to prosperity, removal of sins, family welfare, spiritual upliftment, and divine grace.
