Vows, vermillion & banyan tree:Women observe Vat Savitri Vrat
1 2 Patna: The city came alive with colours, chants and silent vows on Monday as married Hindu women observed Vat Savitri Vrat, a festival deeply rooted in mythology and devotion, celebrated with the hope of ensuring the long life and well-being of their husbands. Observed on Jyeshtha Amavasya, the no-moon day in the Hindu calendar, this sacred day drew hundreds of women to banyan trees scattered across parks, temple premises and even residential neighbourhoods. From early morning, women dressed in vibrant traditional saris, predominantly red and yellow, adorned with bangles, bindis and streaks of vermillion in the parting of their hair, flocked to the banyan trees. The air was filled with devotional songs and murmured prayers as they circled the trees, tying sacred threads around the trunks, waving traditional hand fans, and offering fruits and sweets. "This festival is associated with the tale of Savitri," said Amrendra Shastri, a priest at a temple in the Pani Tanki area of Boring Road. "By fasting and worshipping banyan trees on this auspicious day, women seek long life and good health for their husbands and children. Since morning, several women have come here to worship and listen to the tale of Savitri and Satyavan," Shastri added. "The banyan tree is a symbol of long lifespan and is considered the abode of the Hindu Trinity — Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trade Bitcoin & Ethereum – No Wallet Needed!

"I did my shopping a day before, gathering all the essentials like sacred thread, hand fan, seasonal fruits, and vermillion. Today, I worshipped the banyan tree, tied the thread around it, and listened to the story of Savitri narrated by the priest," she added.
