Mauni Amavasya, also known as the "King of Snans", is considered the most significant bathing day during Magh Mela. On this new moon day, devotees observe a vow of silence (mauna) and take a holy dip in the Ganges at the break of dawn.
The spiritual power of this day is believed to be at its peak when celestial bodies align in a particularly auspicious configuration. Pilgrims believe that bathing on this day can liberate them from the cycle of birth and death.
The practice of silence on this day symbolizes inner reflection and communion with the divine, allowing devotees to focus entirely on their spiritual journey without the distractions of worldly conversations.
