If it is your first one
- The evening arghya is at sunset and the morning one before sunrise — in a northern November that is about 4.30pm and 7.45am; dress for cold water.
- Bring fruit, sugarcane and thekua for the basket; the association will say where the ghat is and whether the water is open to stand in.
