The new year of Vikram starts on the day of Kartik Sud Ekam. Therefore that day is considered the sunrise of the whole year. 'Whose first day of the year is dull, his whole year is dull!' Even from the psychological point of view, 'the first impression is the last impression', new man, new day or new year; The memory of its first impact on us always remains.
This day is also called Balipratipada; The story behind this is that when Tripada asked for land, he sacrificed Vaman and sent him to the abyss. Bali is the son of Virochana. Prahlad's son Virochana turned out to be an atheist. This affected his son's sacrifice. Sacrifice ruled the good in the good: but it weakened the piety and piety of the people. People of different varnas were diverted from proper performance of their duties and Brahmins were kept away from cultural activities and engaged in purely ritualistic sacrifices. The fundamentalist Kshatriyas with demonic tendencies were given important positions in the state. The business also went into the hands of the oppressed Vaishyas. In this way the Yagya tired the Trivarnas. The education system was snatched from the hands of Brahmins and handed over to the royal power: hence education became less, light and weak. Devotion to God and love for God has vanished from the society. Money became President.
Aditi, upset with the worship of such indulgences and laziness in the society, prayed to God for a bright child. Due to Aditi's devotion and Kashyap's penance, God took birth from Aditi's womb and he was a dwarf!
Vaman created public awareness. He went from door to door with cultural ideas; Vishnu became; Vishar means Vamana has become huge. Bali had to compromise with him. Left three conditions. (1) Handing over the education system into the hands of Brahmins, (2) Handing over the administration of the state into the hands of theistic Kshatriyas, (3) Handing over trade and employment into the hands of respectable Satvik Vaishyas. This is Tripada land. Sacrifice got tired of this demand. As soon as he expressed doubt about his existence, God sent Sutala to the south by giving him abundant wealth and himself became its gatekeeper. That is, the victim was held in protective custody as a state prisoner.
If a man thinks of nothing other than sacrifice and selfishness, then why can it be said that his new year has begun? If there is nothing new in life then new and old year are empty words. They are dry blocks of time created for their convenience.
Besides, there is also a provision for performing Govardhanotsav and Annakoot on this day for the blessings of Lord Vishnu. There is a story in Bhagwat that once on the Pratipada day of Shukla Paksha of Kartik month, Lord Shri Krishna went to the forest with cows along with the cowherds. Seeing the cowherds dancing happily in the forest, he asked, 'What are you celebrating?' And which god do you worship in it?' The cowherds said, 'We celebrate Vritrahanta Indra every year to protect us from drought and drought.' Krishna did not like the worship of such officials in the society. He ordered people to leave Indra Puja and perform Govardhan Puja.
From that day the cowherds left Indra Puja and started Govardhan Puja as per the orders of Krishna. If we also come out of the old house in the new year and accept the new life by taking God's permission or God's vision, then our new year will be meaningful. New Year is a day to make new resolutions, a day to make new decisions, a day to recommit to your goals and move forward!
From the new year, a person should forget old grudges and start new practices. 'Jaagne se subah' and 'Bhoolne se remember' should be the slogans of this New Year. The auspicious resolutions made in the New Year are not just resolutions but if they are implemented in life then any deteriorated situation can be improved and the common man can reach the highest peak of greatness. It is our responsibility to give life to our resolutions. Only our efforts to take life in the right direction with true dedication of the heart can make the new year successful.
Even amidst the festive joy of the New Year, one should try to understand the seriousness of human life. It's one thing to take life lightly and another to be childish. There is a difference between the two. It is one thing to be serious in life and it is another thing to lose the courage to live a life surrounded by despair. It is one thing to be carefree and another thing to be careless.
May the New Year lift humans from the life of suffering and selfishness and turn them towards God, forget old hatred and inspire new life, infuse hope and enthusiasm in the arteries of the blood and give us the message to remain in life, always stay young, New Year. May the new life begin with the same Lord!
