According to mythology, Lord Krishna killed the demon Narakasura on the Chaturdashi Tithi of the Kartik Krishna Paksha. This story is also mentioned in the Shrimad Bhagavata Purana and Vishnu Purana. After the battle, Lord Krishna applied oil and a herbal paste to clean the blood from his body and took an early bath on Chaturdashi morning. This is why applying oil and a herbal paste and bathing before sunrise is considered important on this day. There is one more belief that bathing before sunrise on Narak Chaturdashi helps to free a person from the suffering of hell and removes the fear of an untimely death.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Benefits_of_Abhyanga_Snan\"><\/span><strong>Benefits of Abhyanga Snan<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to Ayurveda, on Narak Chaturdashi or Roop Chaudas, massaging your body with sesame oil and applying a herbal paste before bathing helps to improve the skin and gives a radiant glow. This is why the day is called Roop Chaudas. It is also believed that this bath helps in removing illness and negative influences.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On Nakrak Chaturdashi, the purpose of Abhyanga Snan is not limited to cleansing the body. It also helps to keep the mind calm and refreshed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Abhyanga Snan is believed to help prevent illnesses. In addition, in the context of \u201cRitucharya\u201d, it helps in maintaining a balance of Vata, Pitta, and Kapha in the body.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Perform_Abhyanga_Snan\"><\/span><strong>How to Perform Abhyanga Snan<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Oil Massage:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> On Narak Chaturdashi, wake up before sunrise and then properly massage the entire body with sesame oil.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Herbal Paste:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> After the oil massage, apply a paste made from gram flour, turmeric, sandalwood, or Ayurvedic herbs.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Use of Prickly Chaff Flower (Apamarga):<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> According to tradition, the Prickly Chaff Flower (Chirchira) plant or its leaves should be placed around the head or added to the bathing water before taking a bath.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Bathing:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> After leaving the oil and herbal paste on the body for some time, take a bath with fresh and lukewarm water.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Yama Tarpan:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> After bathing, wear clean clothes, face south, and offer Tarpan to Lord Yamraj.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Important_Precautions\"><\/span><strong>Important Precautions<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sesame oil is traditionally used for Abhyanga Snan.
