Dussehra Vrat Katha | दशहरा व्रत कथा (Dussehra Vrat Katha)

|| Dussehra Vrat Katha ||

Dussehra ya Vijayadashami ka tyohar Ashwin mas ke shukl paksh ki dashmi tithi ko manaya jata hai. Yeh tyohar adharm par dharm, asatya par satya aur burai par achhai ki jit ka pratik hai.

Ravan Vadh ki Katha: Tretayug mein Lankapati Ravan ne Mata Sita ka apharan kar liya tha. Bhagwan Shri Ram ne vanar sena ke sath Lanka par aakraman kiya. Nau dinon tak chale bhishan yuddh ke bad, Ashwin shukl dashmi ke din Bhagwan Ram ne ahankari Ravan ka vadh kiya. Isi khushi mein har sal Dussehra manaya jata hai.

Shami Puja ka Mahatva: Mahabharat kal mein jab Pandavon ko barah varsh ka vanvas aur ek varsh ka agyatvas mila, tab unhone apne divya astra-shastra Shami ke vriksh par chhupa diye the. Agyatvas samapt hone ke bad Vijayadashmi ke din unhone Shami vriksh ki puja ki aur apne shastra punah prapt kiye. Iske bad unhone Kauravon par vijay prapt ki. Isliye is din Shami vriksh ki puja aur uske patton ko ‘sona’ samajhkar bantane ki parampara hai.

Mahishasur Mardini: Isi din Devi Durga ne nau ratri aur das dinon ke yuddh ke bad Mahishasur namak rakshas ka vadh kiya tha. Isliye ise Vijayadashami (Vijay ki Dashami) kaha jata hai.
