Temples Timings on 28th October Chandra Grahan

As we know there is a 2nd Chandra Grahan of 2023 on 28th October. Lunar eclipses with their magical attraction have been associated with temple rituals and observances. Due to this Chandra Grahan (lunar Eclipse) many of the temples in India will remain closed. Here you will get temple timings on Chandra Grahan.

What is Chandra Grahan?

A lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan) is a celestial event that occurs when the earth comes between the sun and the moon. That causes the moon to pass through the Earth’s shadow. This happens when the moon is in its full moon phase. During Chandra Grahan, the moon’s colour becomes a reddish or coppery hue also known as “blood moon.”

Why Temples Are Closed on Chandra Grahan?

Temples are closed during Chandra Grahan for various cultural and religious reasons. Grahan is a time of negative energy and disturbance in the environment due to this the temple is kept closed.

During the grahan, it is believed that the Grahas are imbalanced which can affect the energy and purity of the temple. Temples are considered to be a holy place where devotees can connect with the gods/goddesses.

During an eclipse, it is believed that the energy within the temple becomes impure and unfit for worship. Therefore, the doors of the temple are closed.
