Somvati Amavasya 2014 - The Legend


In a village, there used to live a money lender with his wife and children. He had seven sons and one daughter. His all sons got married happily; however, his daughter remained unmarried. A saint used to visit their house regularly and bless all the seven daughter-in-laws. He never blessed the money lender’s daughter. One day, the girl told her mother about it, on which her mother asked the saint for the reason. But, the saint didn’t reply and went away.

Concerned for her daughter, the mother consulted a priest (Pandit) for the same and asked for a solution. The Pandit told her about a washerwoman who used to live on the island of Singhal. He further said that if that washerwoman applies vermilion (Sindoor) on the girl’s forehead, her fate will change. He also advised her to observe Somvati Amavasya Vrat.

The girl went to the island with her younger brother and started living with the washerwoman. After sometime, the washerwoman, being happy with her deeds, applied vermilion on the girl’s forehead. She observed Somvati Amavasya Vrat after reaching home. As a result, she got married and lived happily with her husband.

Observing Somvati Amavasya Vrat can help you in fulfilling all your wishes.

Note


Not performing Shradh perfectly is the main reason of Pitru Dosha. Their unquenchable soul expects that their present generation will perform the needed rituals, which will provide salvation to their soul. People, who knowingly or unknowingly, are not able to perform Shradh of their forefathers in the right way, Pitru Dosha affects their future generation.

Amavasya is considered best for Pitru Shradh. On this day, you can perform Narayana Bali or Tripind Shradh of known-unknown forefathers.
