Mangalvar (Tuesday) is the day of lord Hanuman, it also represents Mars and gemstone Munga. This is very popular day, as Hanuman ji is Sankat Mochan. This day, mostly in evening people go to Hanuman ji’s temple offer Jalebi, Boondi Ke Laddu, and Guldana.
There are many Kathas for a deity, here I’m sharing with you the two Vrat Kathas. For Vrat (fasting), it is personal choice but Puja, Katha and listening Hanuman Chalisa aur Bajrang Baan help a lot.
Mangalvar Vrat Katha
After marriage a couple didn't’ have any children, years passed; their pain for at least a child increased a lot. So in expectation, the wife started worshiping Hanuman ji — she worshiped lord Hanuman daily and put Vrat on Tuesdays.
Once her husband was out of town for years. Out of lord Hanuman’s grace wife got pregnant and delivered a baby in the absence of her husband. The child grew. When the husband returned, he thought that his wife was having an affair with someone, that’s why she got pregnant in his absence. But at night, in his dream lord Hanuman appeared and said, “Your wife didn’t touch anyone in your absence, I’ve gifted this child to her.” Husband became normal and since that time, they lived happily worshiping Hanuman ji.
Mangaliya Ki Vrat Katha
A woman used to worship Mangal devata, that’s why she named her son “Mangaliya.” And on Tuesdays, she didn’t dig the earth nor used Gobar for Chauka. Mangal devata thought to put her on a test. So he arrived her doorsteps in a avatar of a Sadhu.
It was Tuesday, woman welcomed Sadhu in her home and asked what she could do for him. Sadhu said, “I’m hungry, you just do a Gobar Chauka, on it I’ll cook food.” Woman said, “I can’t do Gobar Chauka on Tuesdays; you can ask anything in place of it.”
Sadhu smiled, and said, “If not Gobar Chauka, lay down your son I’ll cook on his back.” Woman had intense faith on Mangal devata, she handed over her son to the sadhu and went away for her work.
When the cooking had been finished. The Sadhu called the woman and her son. What the woman saw, her son was also coming from somewhere. The woman had passed the test, Mangal devata was pleased.
