What to do in evening Arghya? (Sandhya Arghya Dos)

Keeping the time of sunset in mind, one should make all the preparations and reach the bank of a holy river or a water pond made at home. Vrats should wear pure and traditional clothes. During the Arghya, people fasting and participating in the Arghya should keep purity in mind. The fasting person should take the soup in his hands, or with some help, and offer Arghya of milk and Ganga water. The stream of Arghya should be towards the setting sun. While offering Arghya, keep in mind that the sun’s rays should be visible through the stream of water. Vedic mantras should be chanted while offering Arghya. After offering Arghya, the ghee lamp kept in the soup should be lit and floated in water or kept on the banks of the ghat. The story of Chhath fast should be heard at the ghat. After Aarti, one should pray to Chhathi Maiya for the long life, happiness, prosperity and health of the children.
