Why do we celebrate Diwali (Diwali Puja)? What is the secret behind it(Diwali Puja) ?
Once upon a time there lived a moneylender in a forest. His daughter used to offer water to Peepal every day. Mother Lakshmi used to reside on that Amazing Peepal tree on which she used to offer water.
One day Mother Lakshmi said to the moneylender’s daughter, I want to be your friend. Hearing this, the moneylender’s daughter said, I will ask my father and tell you.
Later the moneylender’s daughter went to her father and told everything to her father. On the second day she agreed to befriend Lakshmi, the daughter of a moneylender. Both also became good friends. Both started talking to each other a lot. One day mother Lakshmi took the moneylender’s daughter to her house. Mother Lakshmi welcomed the moneylender’s daughter very much. They fed him many kinds of food.
When the moneylender’s daughter returned from Mother Lakshmi’s house, Mother Lakshmi asked her a question that now when will you take me to your house.
Hearing this, the moneylender’s daughter asked mother Lakshmi to come to her house, but she became sad seeing the financial condition of her house. She began to fear whether she would be able to welcome her friend well. Thinking of this, she became sad in her heart. Sahukar understood seeing the sad face of his daughter.
Then he explained to his daughter that you should immediately clean it by making a square from the soil. Light a lamp with four lights in front of her and remember her there by taking the name of Goddess Lakshmi.
Hearing this from his father, he did the same. At the same time an eagle was flying with a necklace of a queen. Suddenly the necklace fell in front of the Sahukar’s daughter.
Then the moneylender’s daughter quickly sold the necklace and prepared the meal. After a while, (Diwali Puja) Mother Lakshmi along with Lord Ganesha came to the house of the moneylender’s daughter.
The moneylender’s daughter served both of them a lot. Mother Lakshmi was very pleased to see his service and she removed all her pain. In this way the moneylender and his daughter started living like the rich.
Since then the practice of worshiping Ganesha Lakshmi started on the day of Diwali(Diwali Puja) .
Why do we do Tulsi Puja on Diwali(Diwali Puja) ? Know the mystery and the Katha.
Daityaraj Kalnemi’s daughter Vrinda was married to Jalandhar. Jalandhar was a Maharakshasa. In the matter of his power, he fought with the desire to get Mata Lakshmi, but being born from the ocean, Mata Lakshmi accepted him as her brother. After being defeated from there, he went to Mount Kailash with the desire to get Goddess Parvati.
Lord Devadhidev took the form of Shiva and went near to Mother Parvati, but the mother immediately recognized him with the power of her yogic power and from there she became meditative.
Goddess Parvati got angry and narrated the whole story to Lord Vishnu. Jalandhar’s wife Vrinda was a very pious woman. Jalandhar was neither killed nor defeated by the power of his Pativrat Dharma. That is why in order to destroy Jalandhar, it was very necessary to break Vrinda’s pativrata religion.
That is why Lord Vishnu disguised as a sage reached the forest, where Vrinda was traveling alone. There were also two elusive demons with the Lord, seeing whom Vrinda became frightened.
The sage consumed both of them in a moment in front of Vrinda. Seeing his power, Vrinda asked about her husband Jalandhar who was fighting with Mahadev on Mount Kailash.
The sage revealed two apes from his illusionary trap. The head of Jalandhar was in the hand of one monkey and the torso in the hand of the other. Seeing this condition of her husband, Vrinda fell unconscious. On regaining consciousness, she begged the sage god to revive her husband.
The Lord again attached Jalandhar’s head to his body with his illusion, but he himself also entered the same body. Brinda did not even realize this deceit.
Vrinda started behaving virtuous with the God who became Jalandhar, due to which her chastity was dissolved. As soon as this happened, Vrinda’s husband was defeated in the Jalandhar war.
When Vrinda came to know about all this Leela (Diwali Puja) , she got angry and cursed Lord Vishnu to be a heartless rock. Lord Vishnu accepted the curse of his devotee and Shaligram became a stone (Diwali Puja).
As the creator of the universe became a stone, there was a situation of imbalance in the universe. Seeing this, all the deities prayed to Vrinda to free Lord Vishnu from the curse.
Vrinda herself immolated herself by freeing Lord Vishnu from the curse. Where Vrinda was consumed, a Tulsi plant grew there(Diwali Puja).
In this way on Each Diwali (Diwali Puja) Tulsi is worshiped with Shaligram.
