Importance of Hartalika Teej


It is believed that whosoever venerates the divine couple of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati is blessed by Goddess Parvati herself. Girls who are looking for a good husband and married women utilise this golden chance to get themselves a blissful marital life. According to the legends, it was on this day that a friend of Goddess Parvati abducted her and took her into a thick forest in order to help her. This is where Hartalika Teej gets its name from, as Harit means to abduct and Aalika means friend. It is believed that anyone who observes this fast with unswerving devotion is bound to get a happy married life.

How to observe the Hartalika Teej fast?


Hartalika Teej is celebrated on the third day of the brighter fortnight during the month of Bhadrapada. This date holds immense importance for the worship of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati.

Consumption of any kind of cereal or water is strictly prohibited during the fast, and only fruits are used as the prasad.
