General definition (in Hinduism)
Source: Hindupedia: AghamarṣaṇaAghamarṣaṇa-vrata literally means ‘a religious rite prescribed for destroying sins’. No man, however careful, can avoid sins of omission and commission in life. Recognizing this fact, the dharmaśāstras have provided prāyaścittas (expiation), which can obviate or at least minimize the effect of sins. Aghamarsana-vrata is such a prāyaścitta.
