Adhik Maas, which means extra month is also known as Purushottam Maas. Adhik Maas is
considered very sacred. The story is associated with Lord Vishnu. In the Lunar year there were
only twelve months, and each month was assigned to a god… but what about Adhik Maas?
There was no god assigned to the extra lunar month.
It is considered a very auspicious period. Fasting once a day is considered an auspicious ritual.
Fasting and charitable acts this month will fetch a lot of positive results.
