Pañcañgaśuddhi
From Hindupedia, the Hindu Encyclopedia
By Swami Harshananda
Pañcañgaśuddhi literally means ‘holy period according to the pañcāṅga or almanac’.
Any auspicious rite should be performed when all the five aspects dealt with in a pañcāṅga[1] are deemed as auspicious. This is pañcāṅgaśuddhi. These five aspects have been dealt with in detail in pañcāṅga.
