Sahasra Chandra Darshanam means seeing a thousand full moons. This gift is given to the person who sees a thousand full moons. This happens approximately after the person reaches the age of 80 years and 8 months. There are 12 full moons in a year. There are 2 more full moons in each year. In such cases, after 80 years and 8 months, the person sees 1000 full moons. These gifts are part of Hindu tradition.
Hindu traditions have a tradition of giving ten different kinds of objects on the occasion of Sahasra Purna Chandradayan. There has been a tradition of Gaudan, Bhudan, Tildan, Hiranyadan, ie gold donation, Ajaydan, ie ghee donation, Dhanyadan, rice donation, Vastradan, Gurdan, Raupyadan, ie silver donation, and Lavandan, ie salt donation. Sesame seeds or white sesame seeds brought from Tamil Nadu have been given for tildan (donation of sesame seeds). However, instead of cow donation, PM Modi has given a silver coconut, which is used in place of cow donation.
