Nariyeli Purnima
On Shravan Purnima, Koli fishermen along the Konkan coast row out and offer a whole coconut to Varuna, the Vedic god of the sea. The rite closes the monsoon's rough-water months and formally reopens the fishing season — giving the full moon its Marathi name, Narali (coconut) Purnima.

About
The coconut is chosen for a reason. Its three eyes are read as the three eyes of Shiva, and tossing a whole, unbroken fruit into the waves is treated as offering a complete head — a stand-in for older, harsher sea-offerings. Boats are scrubbed, painted and garlanded the night before; at high tide the community walks to the shore, breaks coconuts, and the head of each family casts one into the sea while praying to Varuna for a safe season. Inland, the same full moon carries a different load: Maharashtrian Brahmins perform Shravani Upakarma, the yearly change of the sacred thread, and keep a phalahar fast in which coconut is the only solid food. Kitchens across Maharashtra then mark the day with narali bhaat — rice cooked in jaggery and fresh coconut — and the coconut-jaggery fudge narali paak.

The Dharmayana app keeps track of all upcoming festivals on the Hindu calendar and reminds you in advance.

  • Generate your personal Vedic kundali
  • Talk to a Jyotisha for guidance around career, relationships or health
  • Run kundali matching before fixing a marriage during the festival season
