News India Live, Digital Desk: When we return home at night after a day’s hustle and bustle, our body is tired and worn out. All we feel like is when we get a bed and fall into deep sleep. But do you know what? This “hurry” can sometimes lead to our bad luck.
It is told in ‘Garuda Purana’, the holy book of Hindu religion, that a person should complete some tasks before sleeping. This is not a superstition, but a mantra for discipline and peace at home.
Come, let us know what those tasks are:
1. Cleaning the kitchen and dirty utensils
Often we lazily leave the utensils in the sink after dinner thinking “we will wash them in the morning.” According to Garuda Purana, this is the biggest mistake. It is said that by leaving empty utensils overnight, ‘Alakshmi’ (poverty) resides in the house and blessings go away. Therefore, clean the kitchen before sleeping and wash the utensils before sleeping. This maintains positive energy in the house.
2. Sleep only after dusting the bed
Many of us have this habit of going to the room and lying down straight on the bed. According to the scriptures and Garuda Purana, you must dust your bed once with a clean cloth before sleeping. It not only cleans the dust, but it is also believed to remove the negative energy of the day and helps in getting good sleep.
3. Meditation and ‘gratitude’ of the presiding deity
The last thing you should do before sleeping is to remember your Ishtadev (God). Garuda Purana says that we should apologize for whatever mistakes we have committed knowingly or unknowingly during the day. Also, thank God for today. This is also called ‘self-reflection’. By doing this, nightmares do not come and the mind remains calm.
4. Main door security
In olden times, there was a rule that the head of the house used to check the main door carefully before sleeping. This does not just mean avoiding theft, but it is believed that a closed and secure door prevents the energy of the house from going out. So before sleeping, make sure that the house is in order and the main door is closed properly.
Friends, these are small things, but their impact is deep.
In today’s lifestyle we are forgetting them. If you start following these rules from tonight itself, then believe me, within a few days you will feel the difference in the atmosphere of your home and peace of mind.
