 Comments 

                   

Karadayan Nonbu is a festival of fasting [vratham] wherein married Tamil women pray for the well-being and
longevity of their husbands. According to tradition, this nonbu will be performed exactly at the time when tamil
month of Maasi ends and the following month of Panguni begins.

The background behind this fasting that Sathi Savithri fought with Yama to save her husbands life
on this day. Similarly, married women fast on this auspicious day for the long life of their husbands.

The specialty of this nonbu is the nivedyam. The nivedyam of this fasting is the Karadayan Nonbu Adai
with butter along with betel leaves (vetrilai), arecanut (pakku), banana (pazham) and coconut.
Yellow strings are worn by the womenfolk of the house. In each string a small flower is tied up;
one string is worn on the Kamakshi amman picture while the other strings are worn by the women in the
house.
