birthday celebration
Meaningful Birthday Celebration: Celebrations like weddings or birthdays have special significance in our culture. However, in recent times the ways of celebrating birthdays have become modern. Practices like cutting cake, lighting candles, bursting balloons are different from the basic traditions of Sanatan Dharma. Questions have been raised many times regarding all these. Famous astrologer Dr. Basavaraj Guruji has answered on this.
Guruji says that birthday is a day of introspection. What have I achieved in my life since birth? What auspicious deeds should I do in the coming year? How should I protect my family? What is my contribution to the society? This is the time when answers to such questions should be found. There is no tradition of celebrating birthday according to the calendar in Sanatan culture. Instead, celebrating the birthday according to the date is considered very auspicious.
He said that there are many ways to make a birthday meaningful. Helping the needy is a very virtuous act. Donating food, books, clothes and medicines are excellent forms of charity. Providing food in orphanages or giving medicines, crutches, umbrellas or bedsheets to the elderly in old age homes gives special importance to birthdays.
What should not be done on birthday?
Guruji said that for long life one should remember Rishi Markandeya. The lamp should be kept lit, not extinguished. Reciting Sunderkand on birthday gives immense power. It is also important to avoid some rituals. One should not cut nails on birthday, should not harm any animal and should not cause pain to anyone. By following these rules from sunrise to sunset, the birthday becomes meaningful.
What should be done on birthday?
He said that taking bath in the morning, taking blessings of elders, paying obeisance at their feet, visiting beloved deities and family deities, speaking auspicious words and taking care of small children, all these are auspicious ways to celebrate birthday. Worship has the power to change destiny. If birthday is celebrated properly as a day of worship, good changes will come in our life. Our donation should be beneficial, not selfless. Therefore, celebrating birthdays properly will benefit both us and the society.
