Rules for blowing Shankha: In Hindu religion, conch is considered to have special religious and spiritual importance. It has been an ancient tradition to start puja, aarti and auspicious works with the sound of shankha. It is believed that the sound of conch purifies the environment, removes negative energy and infuses positivity in the house. But very few people know that there is a right time and right way to blow the conch. Blowing the conch at the wrong time or in the wrong way can reduce its benefits, but in some cases it is also considered inauspicious. Let us know when is the best time to blow the conch and at what time blowing the conch should be avoided.
What is the right time to blow the conch?
According to religious beliefs, the best time to blow the conch is morning and evening. Blowing the conch in the morning i.e. at sunrise brings positive energy into the house and makes the day auspicious. Blowing the conch at sunset in the evening removes the negativity of the day and maintains peace in the environment. Apart from this, blowing the conch shell at the beginning of puja, aarti, havan or any auspicious work is considered very auspicious. Blowing the conch is especially important during the evening aarti, because at that time there is a change in energy in the atmosphere.
