Vat Savitri Vrat

Vat Poornima is the time for Vat Savitri Puja which you can do with puja kits online which include simple samagris. Here’s all about Vat Savitri Vrat.

Vat Savitri Vrat celebrations take place on Vat Savitri Poornima every year in the summer season. This is a special period of fasting and prayers by married women who pray for the long life and welfare of their partner. It takes place on Trayodashi day, according to the Indian calendar, in the month of Jyestha and the vrat completes on the day of Poornima. Though the original ritual requires fasting on all the days, most women these days keep fast only on Poornima. This ritual follows the mythological tale of Satyavan and Savitri where Savitri fasts and prays to bring her husband Satyavaan back from death. You can do this puja by purchasing simple puja kits store and performing all the rituals with devotion.
