Vat Savitri fast is not only observed for the long life of the husband but it also brings happiness and prosperity in married life. At the same time, due to this fast being observed on Saturday, its importance has increased even more because it is also Shani Jayanti on this day. In such a situation, let us know which mantra the married women should chant and what kind of food should they eat on the day of fasting?
What to eat and what not to eat during the fast?
If you are observing Vat Savitri fast, then you need to pay special attention to some special things regarding food and drink. This fast is completely a symbol of devotion, hence even after worshiping Vat on this day, one should not eat Tamasic food like garlic and onion. During fasting, you can consume fresh fruits and dry fruits with milk, so that energy remains in the body. At the same time, the Prasad of soaked gram has great importance during the fast, which is considered auspicious to be consumed after the puja. On this day, one should try not to eat too much fried food. Due to extreme heat in Jeshtha, one should keep drinking water and eat only simple and pure food as Prasad.
Main mantras of worship and meditation of Savitri-Satyavan
Mantras should be chanted while worshiping Vat Savitri Vrat. Due to this our mind does not wander and we get the blessings of Goddess Savitri.
