Today’s Significance – 22 November 2025
Today is observed as Skanda Sashti (Subrahmanya Shashti), an auspicious day devoted to Lord Kartikeya (Murugan / Subrahmanya), the divine warrior and granter of strength, protection, and spiritual clarity. This sacred occasion commemorates Lord Murugan’s victory over the demon Surapadman, symbolizing the triumph of righteousness, courage, and inner transformation.

Devotees honor the day through Abhisheka (ritual bathing), offering milk, flowers, fruits, and chanting powerful mantras like “Om Saravana Bhava” or reciting the Kanda Sashti Kavacham. Many also observe a vrata (fast), dedicating their day to prayers, discipline, and positive intention.
This spiritual theme aligns beautifully with “Seeds of Hope”, encouraging individuals to nurture strength, plant intentions, and embrace positive change.
