Pilgrims bathe during Mauni Amavasya Snan (bathing ) day. Bathing on Mauni Amavasya day in magh month has the highest spiritual merit. Mauna means silence. Mauni refers to an ascetic who practices mauna . According to ancient religious scriptures, Mauni Amavasya is the day on which Manu Rishi appears in this world millions of years ago. This day is celebrated as the birthday of Manu Rishi. It is believed, Lord Brahma gave origination to Maharaja Manu and queen Shatrupa. Hence, this day is considered as the beginning of the universe creation. On this day, the Sun and the Moon enters into the Capricorn sign. Many devotees observe a vow of complete silence on this day known as Maun Vrat. Mauna is symbolic identity for spiritual practice and is a particularly important aspect of spiritual discipline. It symbolizes a state of oneness with the self.
