Hanuman Jayanti, celebrated annually on Chaitra Purnima, falls on Saturday, April 12th this year. This day holds special significance for the worship of both Lord Shani (Saturn) and Lord Hanuman. Performing specific remedies on this day can alleviate problems associated with Saturn and bring happiness and prosperity into one's life. Particularly, on this Hanuman Jayanti, observed on a Saturday, performing these three simple yet effective actions can attract the blessings of Lord Shani and Lord Hanuman.
1. Recite Hanuman Chalisa 100 Times
If you are facing financial difficulties, career setbacks, or hardships due to Saturn's influence (Shani Dosha), reciting the Hanuman Chalisa 100 times on Hanuman Jayanti can be highly beneficial. This remedy helps alleviate Shani Dosha and strengthens the position of Mars. Following this, chant Ram Naam (the name of Lord Ram) and then recite the Hanuman Chalisa again. This practice helps bring happiness and prosperity into life and eliminates the sufferings caused by Saturn.
2. Offer a Coconut at a Hanuman Temple
On Hanuman Jayanti, take a coconut to a Hanuman temple. Upon arrival, circle the coconut over your head and break it. Then, chant the mantra 'Om Ham Hanumate Namah' 108 times. This act pleases Lord Hanuman and resolves your difficulties. It also attracts the grace of Lord Shani, paving the way for happiness and prosperity in life.
3. Offer Sesame Oil to the Hanuman Murti (statue)
Offering sesame oil to the statue of Lord Hanuman on Hanuman Jayanti, especially on a Saturday, is considered highly effective. Offering sesame oil and lighting a lamp with sesame oil on this day can eliminate Shani Dosha and provide relief from financial worries. This remedy can also rectify stalled tasks, opening up new opportunities in your life.
Significance of the Panchamukhi Hanuman Image
The image of Panchamukhi Hanuman (five-faced Hanuman) is considered highly significant religiously and holds a special place in Vastu Shastra. This image depicts five faces: those of a monkey (Vanar), Garuda, Varaha (boar), Ashwa (horse), and Hayagriva. Worshipping Panchamukhi Hanuman not only grants victory over enemies but also promises longevity, fearlessness, and the fulfillment of desires. Let's understand the auspicious directions for placing this image to bring happiness, peace, and prosperity to the home.
1. Panchamukhi Hanuman Image at the South-Facing Main Gate
According to Vastu Shastra, a south-facing house is not considered auspicious. If your main door faces south, placing the image or statue of Panchamukhi Hanuman here can be highly beneficial. This not only remedies Vastu defects but also brings happiness and prosperity to the home. Furthermore, this image provides relief from life's troubles and crises.
2. Panchamukhi Hanuman Statue in the South-West Direction
In Vastu Shastra, the southwest direction is known as the Nairitya Kona. Installing a Panchamukhi Hanuman statue in this direction on Hanuman Jayanti brings stability to the home and increases prosperity. Additionally, this direction helps alleviate financial difficulties, strengthening one's financial situation.
3. Panchamukhi Hanuman Image in the North-East Direction
The northeast direction is also known as the Eshanya Kona, considered the abode of Gods and Goddesses. Placing a Panchamukhi Hanuman image in this direction maintains peace and balance in the home. It eliminates troubles and fosters a harmonious family environment. This direction is particularly helpful in bringing harmony and unity to the family.
