Nag Panchami 2026: Date, Shubh Muhurat, Puja Vidhi aur Katha

Sawan ka mahina apne saath kayi pavitra parv leke aata hai, aur unme se ek hai Nag Panchami — Naag Devta ki pooja ka din. Yeh parv Shravan month ke Shukla Paksha ki Panchami tithi ko manaya jata hai, aur is saal yeh 5 August 2026, Wednesday ko padh raha hai.

Nag Panchami sirf ek ritual nahi hai — yeh prakriti aur uske har roop ke saath humare sambandh ko darshata hai. Aaiye is parv ko thoda vistaar se samjhte hain.

Nag Panchami 2026 Date aur Shubh Muhurat

• Tithi: Shravan Shukla Panchami
• Date: 5 August 2026 (Wednesday)
• Puja ka shubh samay: Subah ke muhurat mein Naag Devta ki pooja karna sabse shubh mana jata hai

Panchami tithi ka samay saal-dar-saal thoda badalta hai, isliye pooja se pehle apne local panchang ya kisi vishwasniya calendar se exact muhurat zarur confirm kar lein.

Nag Panchami ka Mahatva

Sanatan parampara mein saanp ko sirf ek jeev nahi, balki devta ke roop mein pooja jata hai. Naag Devta ko Bhagwan Shiva ke gale ka aabhushan aur Bhagwan Vishnu ki Sheshnaag shayya se juda mana gaya hai. Yeh parv humein sikhata hai ki prakriti ke har roop — chahe wo dikhne mein bhayankar hi kyun na ho — uska apna sthaan aur samman hai.

Kai gharon mein yeh maana jata hai ki Nag Panchami ke din Naag Devta ki pooja karne se ghar mein saap se juda bhay aur nakaratmak urja door hoti hai, aur parivaar mein suraksha ka aashirwad milta hai.

Nag Panchami Katha (Kahani)

Nag Panchami se judi sabse prachalit katha ek kisan aur uske parivaar ki hai. Kaha jata hai ek kisan ne khet jotte samay anjaane mein naagin ke bachchon ko maar diya. Iska badla lene naagin us kisan ke parivaar ke peeche aayi. Lekin jab usne kisan ki beti ko dekha jo pure bhakti bhaav se Naag Devta ki pooja kar rahi thi, to naagin ka gussa shaant ho gaya aur usne poore parivaar ko kshama kar diya, saath hi unhe aashirwad bhi diya.

Yeh katha humein sikhati hai ki shraddha aur bhakti se bade se bada gussa bhi shaant ho sakta hai, aur kshama sabse badi shakti hai.

Nag Panchami Puja Vidhi

1. Subah snaan karke saaf kapde pehnein.
2. Ghar ke mukhya dwar ya pooja sthaan par gobar ya mitti se saanp ki aakriti banayein, ya Naag Devta ki murti/tasveer sthapit karein.
3. Naag Devta ko doodh, haldi, chandan, phool aur akshat arpit karein.
4. Deepak jalayein aur dhoop dikhayein.
5. Nag Panchami ke mantra ya Naag Stotra ka paath karein.
6. Aarti karke parivaar sahit prasad grahan karein.

Nag Panchami Mantra

“ॐ नागाय विद्महे विषदंताय धीमहि। तन्नो सर्प: प्रचोदयात्॥”

Is mantra ka jaap karne se bhay door hota hai aur mann ko shanti milti hai.

Kya Karein aur Kya Na Karein

Karein:

• Naag Devta ko doodh evam pushp arpit karein
• Ghar ke aas-paas saanp ke bilon ke paas deepak jalayein
• Zaroratmandon ko daan karein

Na Karein:

• Is din khet jotne ya zameen khodne se bacha jaata hai
• Saanp ko nuksaan pahunchana ya use pakadna sakht mana hai
• Lohe ki cheezon se khana banane se bhi kai jagah parhez kiya jata hai

Bharat Mein Nag Panchami Kaise Manayi Jaati Hai

Nag Panchami desh ke alag-alag hisso mein alag tarike se manayi jaati hai:

• Maharashtra: Yahan mahilayein vrat rakhti hain aur ghar mein saanp ki tasveer ya murti ki pooja karti hain
• Rajasthan aur Uttar Pradesh: Naag mandiron mein khaas pooja aur mele lagte hain
• South India: Kai jagah is din naag devta ke saath-saath khet-khaliyan ki bhi pooja ki jaati hai

Yeh vividhta hi Sanatan sanskriti ki sabse badi khoobsurti hai — ek hi parv, alag-alag roopon mein, lekin bhaav wahi.

Conclusion

Nag Panchami humein yeh sandesh deti hai ki prakriti ke har roop ka samman karna chahiye. Yeh parv sirf pooja-paath tak seemit nahi, balki ek jeevan-darshan hai — bhay ko shraddha mein badalne ka, aur prakriti ke saath sahastitva (coexistence) sikhane ka.

Om Namah Shivaya. Har Har Mahadev.
