In our scriptures, Kush is used in all kinds of auspicious or religious works and rituals, etc. Kush is used while donating to someone whirling water to the Sun God and in many other works. It is also said that worship done without Kush becomes fruitless- Pujakale sarvadaiva kushahasto bhavechhuchi: Kushen rahita puja viphala kathita maya. That is why there is a law to accept Kush or collect Kush on the day of Kushotpatini Amavasya.

On the day of Kushagrahani Amavasya, every person must consume as much Kush as possible. On this day, after taking a bath, etc., one should go to a suitable place and face the east or north direction and break the Kush with the right hand, and while breaking the Kush, one should chant this mantra. The mantra is as follows- Om Hoon Phat- Phat Swaha. While breaking the Kush, one should keep in mind that the Kush should not be torn or cut, it should be completely green.
