Notes from our sources

When should new deity idols be installed in a home, and what is the minimum daily practice otherwise?
Ideally on Pratipada during Navratri, avoiding Bhadrapada and Pitru Paksha; even without a formal idol, offering incense and a lamp every morning and evening is the essential minimum.
Why do practitioners flock to Tarapith specifically on this day?
All spiritual practitioners across West Bengal, Bangladesh, and the northeastern regions inevitably visit Tarapith on the Amavasya of Bhadrapada month to perform Sadhana at the Mahashmashan, awaken esoteric disciplines, and seek Bhagavati Mahavidya Tara's direct darshan — despite this not being Tara Jayanti, it holds immense importance in Tantric Sadhana.
