WHY KARWA CHAUTH IS MEANT IN HINDU MYTHOLOGY:
Karwa Chauth, which has its roots in Hindu mythology and divine symbolism, is considered as a sacred manifestation of love, devotion, and spiritual faith.
Married women follow a fast from sunrise until moonrise as a spiritual sacrifice to goddesses such as Goddess Parvati, who represents feminine strength and marital fidelity, rather than just as a ritual for their husbands’ lifespan. Legend has it that Parvati herself fasted for Lord Shiva in a similar manner, encouraging women to follow in her footsteps.
ALSO, The idea that true devotion can affect divine will is supported by tales of Queen Veervati and Karwa, whose constant prayers caused Lord Yama, the god of death, to spare their husbands’ lives. Worshipped during the ritual, the moon connects human love to heavenly harmony by representing serenity, purity, and the heavenly rhythm of time. Karwa Chauth is much more than just a cultural custom; it is a spiritual commitment that calls forth heavenly favors for safety, wealth, and the holy tradition of wedding.
