The Importance of Karwa Chauth

Karwa Chauth pooja at home is an essential tradition among Hindus as it holds significant meaning. 

  • Women do nirjal fast from sunrise to moonrise, where they can not even take a sip of water. They do Karwa Chauth morning pooja and eat sargi before dawn, with different fruits and nuts from their mother-in-law. They do all this so that their husband can live long life.
  • They prepare a Karwa Chauth pooja thali in which they include all the ingredients required for Karwa Chauth night pooja. Women do Karwa Chauth thali preparation according to their creative skills, which also keeps them distracted from hunger. This thali is given to the family’s eldest member after the Puja in return for their blessings.
  • Karva Chauth puja preparation starts before sunrise, and this pooja is done to increase bonding and show the importance of a husband in their life.
  • Married women also apply Heena on their hands, and in some regions, it is believed that doing so augments longevity and spiritual insight and boosts husbands’ fertility.
  • Married women listen to Katha and wish their husbands a long life and happy marriage by praying to Goddess Parvati.

History of Karwa Chauth

History of Karwa Chauth @smartpuja.com

The following are some fascinating traditional stories about Karwa Chauth and how it started.

Tale of the Queen Veervati: 

An enchanting queen named Veervati was born to an affectionate and caring family of seven brothers. She was at her parent’s house during one of the Karwa Chauth and began a stringent nirjal fast after sunrise. 

By evening she was sorrowing in hunger and thirst and was keenly waiting for the moonrise. Her brothers loved her very much and could not see her suffer like this and decided to make her end the fast. They concoct a plan to trick Veeravati into believing that Moon was up by reflecting a mirror through a Pipal tree. She misunderstood that reflection for the Moon and broke the fast. 

The news that Veervati’s husband had died arrived as soon as she broke her fast. She was inconsolable and kept crying. That’s when Goddess appeared before her and divulged that her brothers tricked her into ending the fast. The goddess granted her the boon of bringing the king back to life when the queen asked for forgiveness. 

But for that to happen, the queen had to do the Karva Chauth fast under stringent rituals, and then solely her husband would revive. She did the Karwa Chauth fast with complete dedication and faith. After witnessing the devotion, Yama, the Lord of death, resurrected her husband.

From the Story of the Mahabharata: 

It is believed that Draupadi also did this Karwa Chauth fast. Draupadi loved Arjuna the most, and when he went to the Nilgiri mountains for self-punishment, all his brothers started having problems without him. 

Draupadi couldn’t see them like this, so she prayed to Lord Krishna to ask for a solution to fix the challenges. Lord Krishna articulated a tale of Goddess Parvati, who observed the Karwa Chauth rituals in an analogous situation. So, Draupadi then observed the stringent practices of Karwa Chauth, and Pandavas solved their problems.

The Story of Karwa: 

One woman named Karwa loved her husband deeply, and this passionate love gave her many spiritual powers. 

Once her husband was taking a bath in a river, and that was when a crocodile attacked him. The fearless Karwa restrained the crocodile with cotton yarn to protect her husband. 

She called Yama, the Lord of death, and asked him to send that repulsing crocodile to hell. When Yama said no, she forebode to curse him. Yama was terrified that he would be condemned by such a loving and devoted wife, so he banished the crocodile to hell and endowed her husband with longevity. 

The Tale of Satyavan and Savitri: 

According to legend, when Yama, the God of death, attempted to take Satyavan’s life, Savitri implored Yama to give him life. But Yama was headstrong and took her husband’s life. After Yama had taken her husband away, Savitri ceased eating and drinking and followed Yama.

Seeing all this, Yama offered Savitri a boon in which she could ask for anything except her husband’s life. Savitri was a brilliant woman, and she requested Yama to accord her with children. Yama knew that Savitri was a devoted wife and would not even think of another man, let alone touch her. Thus, Yama had to give Satyavan the blessing of life so that Savitri could bear children.
