The Pradosh Vrat is dedicated to Lord Shiva. It is a Hindu religious festival celebrated twice every month: once during the Shukla Paksha (the bright half of the lunar month) and once during the Krishna Paksha (the dark half of the lunar month). It falls on the thirteenth day of both the pakshas, Trayodashi Tithi.
During Pradosh Vrat tithi, devotees fast or remain on empty stomachs from sunrise to sunset and perform puja to Lord Shiva and his family. The devotees offer milk, honey, fruits, and flowers to the idol’s statue, as well as light lamps, and sing devotional songs praising the deity. They visit Lord Shiva temples on this day and perform Abhishekam.
Based on different days of the week, a Pradosh Vrat is classified into different types. The Pradosh Vrat list is as follows:
The importance of pradosh vrat tithi is marked as a sacred day for performing charitable acts and making donations. This holy day is seen as a way of pleasing the Lord to save himself and Shiva and acquire his blessings.
The true meaning of Pradosh Vrat lies in the fact that it is believed to help remove sins and purify the soul. One can attain mental stability, peace, and calmness by worshipping Lord Shiva. Moreover, this sacred festival is also seen as a way of strengthening one's devotion to Lord Shiva and bringing one closer to the divine.
Additionally, the Moon is associated with the Pradosh vrat as its ritual is performed in the Sandhyakaal or evening. So, while worshipping Lord Shiva during Pardosh Puja, you are also displaying devotion to the Moon, which is very well mentioned in the renowned “Skanda Purana.”
These are the two most interesting and famous mythological stories about Pradosh Vrat tithi that add importance to this auspicious occasion.
Pardosh Vrat Mythology is also famously known as Pradosh Vrat Katha. It takes us to the famous story of “Samudra Mathan” or “Churning of the Sea”. The holy Skanda Purana mentions all the Gods and Demons or Devas and Asuras who churned the sea (Samundra Manthan) for Amrit to attain immortality.
This was done with the help of the King of serpents, Vasuki. As a result, poison from Vasuki's body got scattered in the sea. Lord Shiva came and drank the whole poison to save the universe from destruction. This day was marked as Pradosh.
The Moon God, also known as Chandra or Soma, got into trouble when his father-in-law, Daksha Prajapati. Daksha cursed Chandra, causing his body to go to waste and the world to fall into darkness. Chandra asked for guidance from Lord Brahma to save himself, who advised him to seek Lord Shiva's blessings.
Chandra self-punished himself for six months, requesting Lord Shiva for mercy and rescue. Lord Shiva appeared before Chandra and blessed him, partially relieving his curse. After that, Chandra could wax and wane, restoring balance to the universe. The special occasion of Trayodashi during Pradosh Kaal marked the end of Chandra's punishment and the bestowal of Lord Shiva's blessings.
