The ritual of applying oil on the head is scheduled for tomorrow

The auspicious time for tomorrow (16) at 09:04 AM suggests that it is best to adorn oneself in green attire, face the north direction, place Kohomba leaves on the head and Kolon leaves under the feet, apply a mixture of Kohomba leaf juice and Nanum (herbal paste), apply oil, and bathe, as mentioned in the New Year’s auspicious timesheet.

Reports indicate that the state ceremony for applying oil on the head this year is planned to be held in Kandy, at the premises of the Natha Devalaya within the Sri Dalada Maligawa (Temple of the Tooth Relic) complex.
