TULSI KA MAHATVA
Have you ever wondered why almost every Hindu home has a Tulsi plant? 🌿 Whether it’s your dadi’s morning ritual of offering water to Tulsi or your mom telling you, “Beta, Tulsi ke bina chai ka mazaa nahi aata,” this sacred plant is deeply woven into our culture and traditions. But what makes Tulsi so special? Chalo, let’s dive into its spiritual, medicinal, and vastu significance!
1. The Spiritual Significance of Tulsi
Tulsi isn’t just any plant—it’s revered as the “Queen of Herbs” and is considered an incarnation of Devi Lakshmi. It is believed that having a Tulsi plant at home invites positive energy and removes negativity.
In Hinduism, Tulsi Vivah (the ceremonial marriage of Tulsi to Bhagwan Vishnu) marks the end of Chaturmas and the beginning of the wedding season. Legend says that worshipping Tulsi daily ensures prosperity, health, and a happy household.
🤔 Did you know? Tulsi leaves should never be plucked on Ekadashi, as it is believed that Bhagwan Vishnu is resting, and it might disturb him!
2. Tulsi and Ayurveda: A Natural Healer
Tulsi isn’t just sacred—it’s a superfood! From dadi ke nuskhe to modern medicine, Tulsi is used to treat: ✅ Cough, cold & fever 🤧 ✅ Stress & anxiety 🧘 ✅ Digestion problems 🍵 ✅ Skin issues ✨
The best part? A daily cup of Tulsi chai not only boosts immunity but also keeps seasonal flu at bay. So, next time you feel under the weather, skip the antibiotics and sip on Tulsi tea instead!
💡 Question for you: Have you ever tried Tulsi kadha during monsoons? If yes, did it actually work?
3. Vastu Benefits of Tulsi: The Positivity Magnet
According to Vastu Shastra, placing a Tulsi plant in the north, east, or northeast direction of your home brings good luck and harmony. It is believed that the presence of Tulsi: ✔️ Purifies the air 🌬️ ✔️ Protects the home from evil energy 🚫 ✔️ Enhances positive vibrations 🙏
