Tithi: Dashami

Dashami Tithi

Dashami is the tenth day of the lunar fortnight. It is a "Purna" (full or complete) Tithi, symbolizing fulfillment, virtue, and the successful completion of a journey.

Symbolism and Meaning

Dashami represents the balance of all ten directions (Dasa-Dik). It is a day of integration and harmony. In the Shukla Paksha, it marks the victory of light after the intensity of Navami. It symbolizes the mastery over the senses and the attainment of higher knowledge.

The presiding deity of Dashami is Yama (the God of Dharma and Justice). His influence ensures that actions taken on this day are aligned with righteousness and cosmic law.
