Worship & Rituals/ Vasant Panchami

Saraswati has her on festivals Saraswati puja which is celebrated on the 1st day of Spring so this festival is also known as Basant Panchami. Once, the world creator Lord Brahma went on a world tour then he found the whole universe silent. After seeing this he felt like somewhat missing in the creation of the universe. Brahmaji stayed in a place and sprinkle a little water from his Kamandal (a holy pot) then suddenly a goddess appeared with a veena in his hand i.e. Goddess Sarawati. She bowed to Brahmaji and in this way she was called a daughter of God Brahma. Thus on this occasion every year Banasnt Panchami is celebrated.

On the appearance of Maa Sarawati, Brahma told her that all the creatures in this world are silent and they can not talk to each other. Mother Sarawati asked him on this that what she has to do now. Brahma instructs her that she has to give the sound to this world with the sound of her Veena so that they can communicate and talk to each other. In this way, they can also understand the emotions of each other and can help each other. Thus she provided a voice to all the creatures.

How do you ensure that the correct number of Japas is being really done by the priests for you or not?

Shaligram Shala puja and Yajna services ensure that each priest takes a Sankalp before starting the puja with betel leaf, betel nut, flower and small qty. of rice. Since all priests are Kashi trained and are initiated, hence once the Sankalpa is taken individually by them, they are bound to complete the stated number Japas positively. In the case of most of the other websites doing pujas, normally all pundits avoid taking such kind of Sankalp and there is a strong likelihood that they do not complete the stated Japa. Hence the positive effect of the puja will not be experienced by the devotee.
