Why Nails And Hair Are Not Cut On Thursday: In Hindu religion, every day of the week is dedicated to some god or goddess. Besides, there are some special beliefs and traditions associated with every day. These traditions have been going on for centuries. Even today people follow these traditions. These traditions include not getting hair cut on Thursday. In religious scriptures, cutting hair, shaving and cutting nails on Thursday is considered inauspicious.
This is the reason why even today elders in homes refuse to get their hair cut, shave or cut their nails on Thursday. In such a situation, did you pay attention to why cutting hair, shaving and cutting nails is prohibited on Thursday? Let us know the reason behind this.
What are the religious reasons?
In Hindu religion, Thursday is considered dedicated to Lord Shri Hari Vishnu, the creator of the world. This day is also considered to be of Dev Guru Brihaspati. According to beliefs, cutting or cutting hair or nails on Thursday reduces the blessings of Lord Vishnu. Not only this, even Lord Jupiter can get angry by getting haircut, shaving and cutting nails on this day.
beliefs related to negative energy
This may lead to obstacles in life, financial problems and family disputes. In Hindu religion, Thursday is considered a holy, revered and auspicious day. Physical and mental purity is necessary on this day. On the other hand, the remains like hair and nails removed from the body are called impure. It is believed that cutting them destroys the purity of the body, hence cutting nails and hair on this day is considered inauspicious.
scientific reason
There are not only religious reasons but also scientific reasons behind cutting hair and nails on Thursday. The part of the body in front of the fingers is very delicate. They are protected only through nails. On Thursday, many subtle rays from the universe have adverse effects on the sensitive organs of the human body. Scientists believe this, hence cutting nails is prohibited on this day.
