Chhath Puja, one of the most sacred festivals celebrated in Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, and parts of Nepal, is known for its deep devotion to the Sun God and Chhathi Maiya. The festival spans four days of pure faith and simplicity. The second day, known as Kharna, holds a special place in every devotee’s heart — it’s a day of cleansing, fasting, and heartfelt prayers.
The Significance of the Second Day (Kharna)
On the second day of Chhath Puja, devotees observe a strict fast throughout the day, refraining from food and water. In the evening, they prepare a traditional meal — “Rasia-Kheer” made with jaggery, rice, and milk, along with chapatis and fruits. This meal is first offered to the Sun God and Chhathi Maiya before being shared as Prasad among family and neighbors.
The ritual symbolizes purity, gratitude, and the belief that simplicity is the truest form of devotion. Homes are cleaned, lamps are lit, and prayers echo in the air — creating a divine atmosphere filled with warmth and togetherness.
