Nag Panchami is an important Hindu festival to worship the Nag Devta, believed to possess great power and protection. Celebrated on the fifth day of the Shukla Paksha (waxing moon phase) in the month of Shravan (July-August), this festival holds special significance across India and Nepal.
The festival is observed through ritualistic ceremonies of the invocation of Nag Devta's blessings for good health, prosperity, and safety from harm. Devotees visit the temples of snake deity worship, or in particular, organize home puja, with offerings of milk, flowers, and incense as mark of respect. In many regions, devotees make clay or metal idols of serpents for worship and often participate in processions accompanied by devotional song singing.
On the other hand, Nag Panchami is also a time to reflect on the cultural and religious importance of serpents in Hindu mythology. The serpents, associated with gods, actually are considered guardians of the earth. Therefore, it will highlight themes of respect and gratitude toward ancient symbols of power and protection.
Effectively, Nag Panchami is a festival and day of reverence that actualizes the deep spiritual bond between man and nature.
