Shani Jayanti 2024: Why did Shanidev's wife curse him? Know what is its connection with Shani's crooked vision


Shani Jayanti 2024: Shani Jayanti is one of the important festivals of Hinduism. This festival is celebrated on the Amavasya date of Krishna Paksha of Jyeshtha month according to the Hindu calendar. On this day, Shani Maharaj, the giver of karma, is worshipped and his blessings are taken.

Shani Jayanti Katha: Lord Shani Dev is one of the main deities of Hinduism, who is known as the god of deeds i.e. the giver of karma. Shanidev is worshipped and adored on the day of Shani Jayanti. On this day people seek his grace and blessings so that they do not have to suffer in life. According to religious beliefs, Shanidev was born on the Amavasya date of Jyeshtha month, hence this day is celebrated as Shani Jayanti.

This year, the festival of Shani Jayanti is about to come. Shani Jayanti has great importance in Hinduism. This year, Shani Jayanti will be celebrated on Thursday, June 6 and along with this, Vat Savitri Vrat will also be observed on June 6. There are many stories about Shani Dev. So, on the occasion of Shani Jayanti, let us know why Shani Dev's wife cursed him.

Why was Shanidev cursed by his own wife?

According to Brahma Purana, Shani Dev was a devotee of Lord Krishna since childhood and was always immersed in his devotion. Shani Dev was married to a woman named Chitrarath. Chitrarath was a very simple, easy-going, knowledgeable, talented and devoted woman. Once Chitrarath went to Shani Dev to wish for a son. Even at that time, Shani Dev was engaged in the meditation of Lord Krishna. During that time, he did not look at his wife Chitrarath so as not to break his meditation posture.

His wife Chitrarath found this behaviour insulting. Due to this insult, she cursed Shanidev and said that from today onwards whoever he looks at will be destroyed immediately. Hearing this curse from his wife, Shanidev's concentration was disturbed and he also repented for his mistake, but Chitrarath had no solution for that curse. This is the reason why Shanidev always walks with his head bent and crooked eyes, so that his gaze does not fall on anyone and no one gets harmed.
