What is Masya?

Masya or Amavasya marks the day of the month when No Moon occurs. It is basically the middle of 30 lunar phases of Indian Calendars such as the Bikrami Samvat and Nanakshahi Calendar. Masya occurs at the 15th Tithi of Krishna Paksha (Vadi) like the Purnima, Punya or Pooranmashi occurs at the 15th of Shukla Paksha (Sudi). In some calendars, Masya is assumed as the last day of the month as they consider the new moon as the first day of the month.

There are 2 Pakshas of Indian Calendars i.e. Krishna (Vadi,ਵਦੀ) and Shukla Paksha (Sudi,ਸੁਦੀ). 15 days between Poornima and Amavas are known as Krishna Paksha and 15 Days between Amavas and Purnima are called Shukla Paksha.

Significance of Amavasya or Masya in various Religions:

In Sikhism, Masya (or the new moon day) is not considered to be a particularly significant day. Sikhism does not follow the Hindu lunar calendar or the practice of fasting on Amavasya. Instead, the Sikhs follow their own calendar, known as the Nanakshahi calendar, which is based on the solar year and has its own set of significant days and festivals. The Sikhs primarily focus on daily prayers and the remembrance of God rather than on specific days or calendar-based rituals.

However, in Hinduism, Amavasya is considered an auspicious day for performing religious rituals, such as offering prayers to ancestors and performing charitable deeds. It is believed that performing these rituals on the new moon day can have a powerful influence on one’s destiny.

In Buddhism, Amavasya is considered to be a good day for meditation, as the absence of moonlight is believed to symbolize the absence of worldly distractions, which can make it easier to focus on spiritual pursuits.

In Jainism, Amavasya is considered to be an auspicious day for performing religious rituals and charitable deeds, as well as for fasting.

The new moon is widely regarded as a symbol of rebirth and renewal in various cultures and religions. The day of Amavasya, which marks the new moon phase, is often seen as an opportunity to embark on new projects, start fresh, and pursue new beginnings.
