From the Shiwalay desk

Every vrat closes with its katha. It is easier when all of them are in one book on the altar.

About this piece

Every vrat is kept with its katha, the story read aloud at the puja: the twenty-four Ekadashis, the Somvar and Pradosh vrats, Karwa Chauth, and many more. This collection gathers them in Hindi in one paperback for the home altar.

Why it's traditionally used

Every vrat is completed by its katha, the story read aloud at the puja before the aarti. Ekadashi, Somvar, Pradosh and Karwa Chauth each have their own, and families keep a collection of them on the altar.

How to use
  1. Read the day's katha at the puja, before the aarti.
  2. For Ekadashi, find the katha for that particular Ekadashi; each has its own story.
  3. Keep it on the altar with your other puja books.
Care
  • Keep dry, out of direct sun, and dust with a soft cloth.
