On this auspicious day, Tulsi Maa is married to Bhagwan Shaligram. Shaligram is considered to be an incarnation of Lord Lakshmi to Lord Vishnu and Tulsi ji. On this day both of them are married with full custom. But some things must be kept in mind on the day of Tulsi Puja.

Light a lamp in the evening

Tulsi Puja 2020: Tulsi plant should be burnt daily and lamps should be lit at dusk. Remember to keep water and lamps on the basil plant on the day of Tulsi’s wedding. By offering water and placing a lamp on Tulsi, the grace of Maa Lakshmi always rests on you. Also, do not offer water on Tulsi plant on Sunday.

Avoid meat and alcohol

Tulsi Puja 2020: During Tulsi Puja, do not forget to consume meat, liquor and intoxicants. Also, never consume these things near the basil plant. At the same time, people who wear Tulsi Mala should always keep a distance from these things.

Take special care of the direction

Never plant a basil plant in the south direction of the house. Tulsi plant should always be planted in North-East or North Direction. This gives it auspicious results.

Apply basil in a pot

Always plant a basil plant in a pot. According to the belief, a basil plant planted in the ground is considered inauspicious. It has a negative effect on the home.

Jitiya fast lasts for three days. On the first day of the fast, take a bath, on the second day a nirjala fast is observed and on the third day, it is celebrated. According to the Hindu calendar, Jitiya fast is kept from Ashtami Tithi to Navami Tithi of Krishna Paksha of Ashwin month. Ashtami Tithi will begin on 09 September at 1:30 pm. This date will be on Thursday, September 10, at 4:30 in the afternoon.

A day before the Jitiya fast, women wake up early in the morning and bathe and then worship. After this, Jitiya will accept food only after fasting. Women who fast during Jitiya fast observe Nirjala fast throughout the day. On Paran day, something is eaten only after offering Arghya to the Sun. On the day of Jitiya fast, Jhor Bhat, Bharuva bread, and Noni greens are eaten.

Fast story
The story of this fast is related to the Mahabharata period. According to religious stories, Ashwatthama entered the Pandavas’ camp with a feeling of revenge for his father’s death in the Mahabharata war. Five people were sleeping inside the camp. Ashwatthama killed them as Pandavas, but they were the five children of Draupadi. Arjun then took Ashwatthama captive and took her divine gem.

Ashwatthama again seeks revenge to kill the children born in the womb of Abhimanyu’s wife Uttara and he destroys Uttara’s womb with Brahmastra. Then Lord Krishna revived the unborn child of Uttara. Being alive after dying in the womb, the child was named Jeevaputrika. Then from that time on, Jitiya’s fast began to be kept for the long life of the child
