Hanuman Jayanti, celebrated on Chaitra Purnima, will be observed across India on April 12, 2025, with great devotion. Devotees will observe fasts, perform special pujas, and undertake various remedies to seek blessings and relief from troubles. Religious belief holds that the worship of Lord Hanuman grants freedom from fear, disease, sorrow, and all obstacles.
This year, a specific remedy is gaining popularity among devotees: lighting a lamp using a thread of kalawa. It is believed that this act bestows special blessings from Lord Hanuman and destroys all negative forces in one's life.
What is the Remedy of Lighting a Lamp with a Kalawa Thread?
According to religious beliefs, kalawa, also known as 'mouli', symbolizes purity and protection. It is commonly tied around the wrist during worship. However, lighting a lamp with a kalawa wick on Hanuman Jayanti is considered a rare yet powerful remedy.
Method of Lighting the Lamp
• Take a bath in the morning and wear clean clothes, preferably red.
• Arrange a clean altar in front of an image or statue of Lord Hanuman.
• Take an earthen or brass lamp and fill it with pure ghee (clarified butter) or jasmine oil.
• Gently twist the kalawa thread to make a long wick.
• Place this wick in the lamp and light it before Lord Hanuman.
• Close your eyes while lighting the lamp and pray for fulfillment of desires and relief from troubles.
• Recite Hanuman Chalisa, Bajrang Baan, or Sundarkand afterwards.
• Keep the lamp burning in front of Lord Hanuman until evening aarti.
Why is this Remedy Special?
According to priests and astrologers, kalawa protects against negative energy, and when used as a lamp wick, it creates a powerful spiritual shield. This remedy is particularly beneficial for those facing constant problems, fear, legal battles, or mental stress in their lives.
On the auspicious day of Hanuman Jayanti, lighting a lamp with a kalawa wick with devotion and proper procedure not only removes troubles from the devotee's life but also brings happiness, peace, and prosperity to their home and family. This simple yet impactful remedy can prove to be a boon for every devotee.
