Yamraj Jayanti: Devotees Worship Dharmaraj Ji on Vat Savitri Vrat

On the auspicious occasion of Vat Savitri Vrat, married women across India are observing the traditional ritual of worshipping the sacred Banyan tree. Apart from honoring the long life and well-being of their spouses, this year’s Vat Savitri Vrat is uniquely combining reverence for Dharmaraj Ji, the deity of death and judgment.

This convergence of Vat Savitri Vrat with the celebration of Yamraj Ji has added a spiritual dimension to the festivity. As per Hindu customs, offering prayers to Yamraj Ji during this vrat is believed to bestow unbroken marital bliss and protect individuals from adversities in life.

Devotees perform elaborate rituals with devotion as they venerate the Banyan tree and recite praises for Dharmaraj Ji. This year, the emphasis is not only on marital harmony but also on seeking blessings for a prosperous life under the divine guidance of Dharmaraj Ji.

While the significance of Vat Savitri Vrat in fostering spousal relationships remains paramount, the inclusion of Dharmaraj Ji’s worship has deepened the spiritual aspects of this traditional observance.
