Today is Karva Chauth… that most beautiful day of love, sacrifice and faith, for which every married woman waits throughout the year. Today you too must have observed a fast (Nirjala) without eating or drinking anything since morning for the long life and good health of your husband.
In the evening you will do sixteen makeup, decorate the puja thali and wait for the moon after listening to the story of Karva Mata.
But do you know that the results of this puja can increase manifold, if you chant some special and powerful mantras while offering Arghya to the moon at night? These are not just some words, these are the ‘divine sounds’ that deliver your prayers directly to the Gods and Goddesses.
So this time when you offer Arghya to the moon, chant these simple mantras to make your worship even more powerful.
1. ‘Maha-mantra’ while offering Arghya to the Moon
When you are offering water to the moon, repeat this mantra in your mind. It directly conveys the blessings of Moon God to your husband.
“Om Somay Namah”
This is a very simple and most powerful mantra. It means, “Moon God, I bow to you.”
2. Mantra to seek the blessing of unbroken good fortune from Karva Mata
This mantra is a prayer to Mother Karva that she always keeps your marriage safe and blesses you with unbroken good fortune.
“Mum, happiness, good fortune, son-grandson, well-established Shri Praptye, Karak Chaturthi Vratmahan Karishye.”
(If this long mantra seems difficult, you can also simply pray mentally.)
3. Mantra to get blessings of Lord Shiva-Parvati and Ganesha
The worship of Karva Chauth is incomplete without the blessings of Lord Ganesha and Shiva-Parvati. This mantra is for meditating these three together.
“Om Namah Shivayai Sharvanyai Saubhagyam Santati Shubham. Prayaccha Bhaktiyuktaanaam Narinaam Harvallabhe.”
What is the magic of these mantras?
When you chant mantras, it creates a positive energy and vibration. This vibration transmits your prayer to the divine powers present in the universe and makes it even more powerful.
This is the most sacred way to give a beautiful end to your devotion and penance. So this time, complete your puja with these mantras while offering Arghya and get blessed with a long, happy and healthy life for your husband.
Wishing you a very Happy Karva Chauth!
