Vrat Katha For Somvati Amavasya
According to ancient mythology, there was a poor Brahmin in ancient times. He had a very kind-hearted and benevolent daughter. However, due to lack of money, she was unable to get married, which the poor Brahmin was very upset about. One day, he asked for a solution to get rid of this problem, to which the monk (Sadhu) said that there lives a washerwoman with the name of Sona in a nearby village. She is very cultured and devoted to her husband. If your daughter takes care of that washerwoman and that washerwoman applies her forehead’s Sindoor (vermillion) to your daughter’s forehead, she will get rid of her problems.
The Brahmin’s daughter followed the guidelines of the Sadhu. Every day she used to wake up early in the morning and visit the washerwoman’s house and did all her work silently. Both the Washerwoman and her daughter-in-law were unaware of the same. One day the Washerwoman asked her daughter-in-law to which she answered “I thought you were the one who wakes up early and does all the work”. When both of them came to know that there is a third person who is doing all the work then they decided to keep an eye.
After this, the Washerwoman kept monitoring for many days, and then one fine day, she caught the girl. By grabbing her feet, she asked who are you and why do you do all our household work? To which the girl politely answered that once a Sadhu said there is a Washerwoman who is very much devoted to her husband and told everything about the remedy that was recommended by the Sadhu. Without any further ado, the Washerwoman applied her Vermilion on the girl’s forehead. However, this led to the sudden demise of her husband. When the Washerwoman came to know about this, she stepped out of her house, and without consuming even a drop of water, she started doing parikrama around the Peepal tree continuously 108 times. After doing this, her husband came back to life and that is why on this day, Women usually do parikrama around the Peepal tree.
