Story behind Chhath Pooja

Draupadi and Chhath

Chhath pooja can be traced back to period of Mahabharat. Mahabharat has the reference of Chhat pooja. Draupadi, wife of the 5 Pandavas, has a great power to cure any type of disease including leprosy. The main reason of her power is her worship and devotion to Lord Sun (Surya Devata). Hindu believe sun has unlimited power to cure several diseases. The holy and divine energy of Surya made Draupati most powerful woman in the world to cure many diseases. As a commemoration of Draupadi and Lord Surya, Chhath Parva is celebrated worshiping Surya Devata.

Chhat Pooja and Karna

Chhat Pooja or Surya Sashti vrat is observed by Warrior Karna, the son of Surya, who was renowned warrior and well-known for his nature of charity. Since Karna became a popular and powerful by observing Surya Puja, Hindus also worship Surya devata for courage, fame, health, wealth and prosperity

CDS should be practiced within one-hour window after sunrise or within one-hour window before sunset. Any person of any age can practice CDS. If you wish to practice CDS at any time other than sunrise or sunset, do not practice it in front of Sun. You can however, practice CDS in a room. Even a bed-ridden person can try and consciously draw in the solar energy while lying on the bed. With regular practice, he/she will notice an improvement in physical and mental health. For those who are not comfortable facing the sun, they can practice the technique in any room having proper ventilation. If you have time, you can also practice twice a day. Do not hurry in increasing the number of rounds, as there is no shortcut to success in this method. The nervous system of the body takes its own time in adapting and to be able to receive the energy.
