Vat Savitri Purnima Vrat 2025: Significance
Married women worship the holy Banyan tree, which has a special place in Hinduism, and the esteemed pair of Savitri and Satyavan on Vat Purnima Vrat. The tree's roots, stem, and upper portions are thought to symbolise the three main gods: Shiva, Vishnu and Brahma. Devotees can achieve spiritual growth and fulfil their desires by carrying out rituals beneath this tree.
Devotees worship the idols of Yamraj and Savitri-Satyavan with fruits, vermilion, saffron and incense on the festival day of Jyeshtha, which falls on a full moon. Married women observe this holy vrat to honour womanhood, strengthen their marriages, and promote the welfare of their husbands and kids.
All women, regardless of their circumstances, can uphold the Vat Purnima vrat. In order to receive the same benefits as those who fast, pregnant women, working women, and people with illnesses can all take part in the puja without fasting. Women can seek good fortune and a happy married life by fervently praying, as demonstrated by Savitri, who successfully retrieved her husband Satyavan from Yamaraj. Because of its religious foundation, this vrat is a holy and auspicious occasion.
