Ashwina Amavasya 2026

Ashwina Amavasya is the new moon day of the Hindu lunar month of Ashwina, a sacred time for ancestral offerings (tarpan and shraddha), lamp offerings (deep daan), and quiet reflection.

The Amavasya tithi begins at 10:05 AM on Friday, October 9 and ends at 9:49 AM on Saturday, October 10, Albuquerque local time, as calculated by DrikPanchang. As is traditional, ancestral offerings on Amavasya are made in the morning.

This date is noted on our temple calendar as an observance for devotees’ reference. There is no scheduled program or gathering at the temple for this occurrence. Devotees wishing to make offerings may do so at home or during regular temple hours.
