Importance of Panchdev Puja


Panchdev Puja is a meaningful ritual where five important gods and goddesses are worshiped, each associated with one of the five elements (Panchtatva) of nature: Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Sky. This practice emphasizes the balance of these elements in our lives.

1. Lord Shiva and Earth:
Lord Shiva, the god of transformation and spirituality, is connected with the element Earth. Earth symbolizes stability, grounding, and growth. Including Lord Shiva in Panchdev Puja reminds us to stay rooted in our beliefs while embracing personal growth and transformation.

2. Lord Ganesh and Water:
Lord Ganesh is the remover of obstacles and symbolizes wisdom and intellect. He is linked with the element of Water. Water represents fluidity, emotions, and adaptability. Worshipping Lord Ganesh in Panchdev Puja helps us navigate life's challenges with emotional balance and flexibility.

3. Goddess Devi and Fire:
Goddess Devi, the embodiment of feminine power, is associated with Fire. Fire represents energy, passion, and transformation. Worshiping Goddess Devi in Panchdev Puja ignites our inner strength, passion, and helps us overcome obstacles with determination.

4. Lord Surya and Sky:
Suryadev, the preserver and protector, is linked with the element Sky or Space. Sky represents vastness, openness, and spirituality. By including Lord Surya in Panchdev Puja, we honor the expansiveness of the universe and seek spiritual guidance and protection.

5. Lord Vishnu and Air:
Lord Vishnu, known for his devotion and strength, is associated with the Air. Air signifies freedom, communication, and intellect. Adding Lord Vishnu to Panchdev Puja encourages clear thinking, effective communication, and the freedom to pursue one's goals.

Panchdev Puja is a powerful way to maintain balance in our lives by connecting with the five elements of nature through the worship of five deities. By balancing these elements with the divine energies of these gods and goddesses, we strive for emotional stability, spiritual growth, inner strength, clear communication, and spiritual guidance in our life journey.

युधिष्ठिर ने कहा: जनार्दन ! ज्येष्ठ मास के शुक्लपक्ष में जो एकादशी पड़ती हो, कृपया उसका वर्णन कीजिये। भगवान श्रीकृष्ण बोले : राजन् ! इसका वर्णन परम धर्मात्मा सत्यवतीनन्दन व्यासजी करेंगे, क्योंकि ये सम्पूर्ण शास्त्रों के तत्त्वज्ञ और वेद वेदांगों के पारंगत विद्वान हैं। तब वेदव्यासजी कहने लगे : दोनों ही पक्षों की एकादशियों के दिन भोजन न करे। द्वादशी के दिन स्नान आदि से पवित्र हो फूलों से भगवान केशव की पूजा करे। फिर नित्य कर्म समाप्त होने के पश्चात् पहले ब्राह्मणों को भोजन देकर अन्त में स्वयं भोजन करे। राजन् ! जननाशौच और मरणाशौच में भी एकादशी को भोजन नहीं करना चाहिए।  यह सुनकर भीमसेन बोले : परम बुद्धिमान पितामह ! मेरी उत्तम बात सुनिये। राजा युधिष्ठिर, माता कुन्ती, द्रौपदी, अर्जुन, नकुल और सहदेव ये एकादशी को कभी भोजन नहीं करते तथा मुझसे भी हमेशा यही कहते हैं कि : ‘भीमसेन ! तुम भी एकादशी को न खाया करो…’ किन्तु मैं उन लोगों से यही कहता हूँ कि मुझसे भूख नहीं सही जायेगी। भीमसेन की बात सुनकर व्यासजी ने कहा : यदि तुम्हें स्वर्गलोक की प्राप्ति अभीष्ट है और नरक को दूषित समझते हो तो दोनों पक्षों की
