Vat Savitri Vrat’s Significance And Rituals:

As previously stated, the festival celebrates Goddess Savitri’s devotion in reclaiming her husband Satyavan’s life from Yamaraj. Married women conduct a ritualistic fast, put on new clothes and jewellery, and perform puja on this day. They also listen to the famous story of Savitri and Satyavan while tying a ceremonial sacred thread around a banyan tree. For the unfamiliar, ‘vat’ alludes to the banyan tree, which plays a significant role in the rite. Goddess Savitri is said to have revived her husband under a Banyan tree.

 

Bhog (or Prasad) is also made using rice, pulses, seasonal fruits, and other ingredients by devotees. Women receive blessings from their husbands after the puja and break their fast with Prasad.
