It is described in the Puranas that before the Sun’s Uttarayan, the energies of the universe become extremely calm, balanced and stable.

Penance of gods mentioned in Puranas

In Skanda Purana and Padma Purana, the month of Pausha has been described as the period of intense worship of the gods. According to Skanda Purana, when the Sun is at its most intense state i.e. near the polar energy, then the gods enter into silent penance to stabilize their divine powers. During this period, the glory of the Gods remains focused inward, due to which their grace is experienced relatively peacefully externally. For this reason, this month creates a more sattvik, peaceful and peaceful environment on earth too. It is said that due to the penance of the gods, the subtle divine energy in the universe becomes extremely pure.

Cosmic energy and atmosphere being sattvik

This stability increases sattvikta in the environment, as a result the mental and spiritual potential of man comes to the fore. At this time, sadhana, yoga, meditation and resolutions are more easily successful because nature itself works in favor of the seeker. Negative thoughts, laziness, confusion and mental disturbance automatically start reducing. For this reason, the month of Pausha is considered the best time for purification of mentality and awakening of divine consciousness.

Spiritual power of fasting in the month of Pausha

The fasting observed in the month of Pausha is considered extremely sacred and fruitful. It is described in the scriptures that the restraint done during this period provides a special purification to the mind, body and consciousness of the seeker. Fasts like Paush Purnima, Saptami and Ekadashi increase mental stability, determination power and self-discipline. During fasting, the body becomes lighter and the mind becomes more calm, due to which the power of meditation, chanting and meditation increases manifold. The satvik energy of this month deepens the effect of fasting, hence the month of Pausha is considered the best time for penance and restraint.
