Nag Panchami

Nag Panchami is a significant observance shared among Hindus, Jains, and Buddhists, dedicated to the worship of Nagas or snakes. On this day, devotees pay homage to serpent deities, often represented by idols crafted from silver, stone, or wood. These representations are ritually bathed in milk as a symbol of purification and reverence. Families seek blessings for their well-being and protection by honoring these divine entities, recognizing the significance of snakes in various mythological and cultural contexts.
