Vrat Katha — Samudra manthan aur Neelkantha
Jab devtaon aur asuron ne samudra manthan kiya, to sabse pehle halahal vish nikla — itna teevra ki teenon lok kaanp uthe. Devta-asur sab Bhagwan Shiv ki sharan mein gaye. Shiv ne karuna karke saara vish apne kantth mein dhaaran kar liya; vish ke prabhaav se unka kantth neela pad gaya aur ve Neelkantha kehlaye. Kahte hain yeh ghatna Trayodashi tithi ki shaam ko hui thi — usi samay devtaon ne Shiv ki pooja ki thi. Tab se har maas ke Krishna aur Shukla paksha ki Trayodashi ki shaam ko Pradosh kaal manaaya jaata hai — sooryaast ke baad ke lagbhag dhaaee ghante, jo Shiv-pooja ke liye sabse shubh maane gaye hain. Pradosh ka arth hai dosh-haran — maana jaata hai ki is samay Shiv-pooja karne se saare dosh aur kasht door hote hain. Jis vaar ko Pradosh padta hai, uske anusaar uska vishesh naam aur phal hota hai — Somvaar ko Som Pradosh (Chandra-dosh shaanti), Mangalvaar ko Bhaum Pradosh (Mangal-dosh aur Hanuman-kripa), Shanivaar ko Shani Pradosh (Shani ki saadhe-saati aur dhaiya se raksha).
Shanivaar ka Pradosh sabse mahatvapurn maana gaya hai — kahte hain Shani-dev swayam Shiv-bhakt hain, aur jo Shanivaar ko Pradosh-kaal mein Shiv ki pooja karta hai, use Shani ki saadhe-saati aur dhaiya ke kashton se raksha milti hai. Tel ka deepak aur kaale til ka daan vishesh phal deta hai.

Aksar poochhe jaane wale sawaal
Pradosh-kaal kya hota hai?
Trayodashi tithi ko sooryaast ke baad ke lagbhag dhaaee ghante (do prahar ka teesra bhaag) Pradosh-kaal kehlata hai. Maana jaata hai ki is samay Bhagwan Shiv apne parivaar ke saath aanand-nritya karte hain, isliye yeh Shiv-pooja ka sabse shubh samay hai.
Pradosh vrat har maah kitni baar aata hai?
Har maah do baar — Krishna paksha aur Shukla paksha ki Trayodashi ko. Isliye saal mein kul 24 Pradosh hote hain (adhik maas ho to adhik).
Som, Bhaum aur Shani Pradosh mein kya antar hai?
Jis vaar ko Trayodashi padti hai, usi ke naam par Pradosh kehlata hai. Som Pradosh (Somvaar) Chandra-dosh shaanti ke liye, Bhaum Pradosh (Mangalvaar) Mangal-dosh aur sahas ke liye, aur Shani Pradosh (Shanivaar) Shani ke kashton se raksha ke liye vishesh maana gaya hai.
Pradosh vrat mein kya khaana chahiye?
Din mein ek samay sattvik bhojan ya phalahar liya jaata hai; shaam ko pooja ke baad phal-aahar liya ja sakta hai. Kuch bhakt poore din nirjala vrat bhi rakhte hain — apni shakti ke anusaar chunein.
Kya Pradosh ki pooja ghar par ho sakti hai?
Haan, ghar mein Shivling ya Shiv-Parvati ki tasveer par abhishek aur pooja ho sakti hai. Mandir jaana sambhav na ho to ghar par belpatra, jal aur deep se pooja karke katha sunein.
