Husbandry woman
Some great women who follow Sattva are being described so that your feelings get intensity:-
Devi Anusuiya
Among the satis, the place of Lady Anusuiya is paramount. Devi Anusuiya was the daughter of Prajapati Kardam and Devahuti. Kardam and Devahuti had nine daughters, including a sati Anusuiya. Sati Anusuiya was the wife of Munivar Atri. Lady Anusuiya's devotion to her husband-devotion i.e. chastity was so great that even the gods used to bow down to her.
During the exile of Shri Ram, Lakshman and Devi Sita had arrived in the house of Atri Muni; Then Lady Anusuiya had taught Devi Sita to keep her husband's fast and also taught the preparation of medicine of unbroken beauty.
Once upon a time there was a difference of opinion between Saraswati-Lakshmi-Parvati as to who is the best Husbandry-Lady? On asking the Trimurtis, he said that at this time only Lady Anusuiya is paramount. To satisfy the three Devi, Brahma-Vishnu-Mahesh decided to test Lady Anusuiya.
As soon as the decision of the examination was taken, the three gods, taking the form of saint, reached their house to ask for alms in the absence of Atri Muni. Devi Anusuiya started giving alms while giving respect to the gods, that is when the gods made their proposal.
The gods said that O Devi, if you give alms naked, then only we will accept alms. Knowing this, the Lady Anusuiya got confused and started thinking.
After thinking for a few moments, the Lady said, "If I have never seen any other man like a husband, if I have not considered any deity as a husband, if I am always in the worship of my husband with my mind, word and deed. If I am engaged, then by the effect of this chatity of mine, these three may become newborn babies". The three gods became newborn babies and also breastfed Goddess Anusuiya.
When this Raita spread more then, on the request of Saraswati, Lakshmi and Parvati and at the behest of her husband Atri, Devi Anusuiya freed all the three gods, but being pleased, the gods gave a boon to the Lady that we would be born from your womb as part of us and Your sons will be called Soma, Dattatreya and Durvasa respectively.
Devi Sita
Goddess Sita is the main character of Ramayana. Mother Sita took the education of chatity from Goddess Anusuiya. Ravana could not touch them only because of their virtuous religion and when Ravana kidnapped devi Sita, Sita was ignorant of Ravana's real intention.
Lady Sita was able to clear the fire test held in Lanka only because of her fierce virtuous nature. You must read Valmiki Ramayana to know the real power of Mother Sita's chastity.
Devi Sita was the daughter of King Janak, who was proficient in meditation. According to legends, Devi Sita was found by King Janak in a box while ploughing, so Janak named her Sita because Sita means the tip of the plow. The life philosophy of Mata Sita presently gives the message of patience, decency and self-reliance to women.
Mata Sita was the daughter of the prosperous king Janak, if she wanted, she could have gone to her maternal home after getting exile to Shri Ram, but she thought it appropriate to follow the husband's religion, but today's woman stays at home for months only after a little estrangement; Some of the great women among them are those who, even when they are married, run away with another man when everything is going well.
Devi Sita had to undergo a fire test in Lanka for her character and after some time on her return to Ayodhya, doubts arose in the public about her character, then she had to go to exile again but did not leave her husband's religion and after some time when she came back to Ayodhya. Giving her last proof, the earth slept in the lap of mother.
This was Mata Sita's tolerance and such was her patience which might be impossible for you today.
Devi savitri
Sati Savitri had brought her husband Satyavan back from Yamraj only on the strength of her devotion. Goddess Savitri was the only child of the great philosopher Rajarshi Ashwapati. During the tour, Devi Savitri accepted Satyavan, the son of King Dyumtsen, as her husband.
Devi Savitri informed her father about this matter, then King Ashwapati called Devarshi Narad ji, then Narad ji told the king about Satyavan's short life, as well as tried to convince Devi Savitri that she should be with Satyavan. Give up the house to get married, but Devi Savitri stood firm on her hut because Savitri was mentally considering Satyavan as her husband.
Here the royal palace of King Dyumtsen had been snatched away by deceit. The king used to live with his wife and son in a hut in the forest. With the passage of time, the eyesight of King and Queen had also gone. Satyavan used to take care of his aged parents. Satyavan was very gentle and good-natured.
When Devi Savitri disobeyed, he married Satyavan. After getting married, Sati Savitri renounced the life of luxury and wore simple clothes and started living in a hut with Satyavan. Devi Savitri used to serve her husband and mother-in-law with all her heart. Devi Savitri was not even proud of the fact that she was the daughter of a king.
Time passed and the time had come when Satyavan's death was certain.q Savitri started worrying; Like every day, Satyavan went to get wood from the forest to light the stove in the evening because Savitri was getting nervous since morning that day, Satyavan allowed Savitri to go with him.
As soon as Satyavan climbed the tree to cut wood, he started feeling dizzy, then he came down and fell asleep with his head on Savitri's lap and Savitri kept blowing air with her stole. After a few moments Yamraj came and tied Satyavan's life in his loop and started walking; Similarly, Savitri asked, O God, who are you? And where are you taking my husband?
Dev said, "I am Yamraj Devi: Your devotion to your husband was so strong that my messenger could not come to your husband, so I had to come myself, Goddess, your husband Satyavan's time is over, now you go back". Savitri said, O God, where the path of the husband is there, my path, following and following my husband is the purpose of my life because in this action the meaning of my life is proved.
Yamraj was already acquainted with the chastity of Savitri, but at the time of conversation, he was very impressed by hearing the words of Savitri and was pleased and said to Savitri, "I cannot return Satyavan's life, but being pleased with your chastity, I will give you three boons. Niw tell me what's your demands, what boon do you ask for?
Sati Savitri asked Yamraj for the first boon that my father-in-law's eyes should come to light, Yamraj said, 'Amastu'. Then the Devi asked for another boon that my father-in-law's snatched palace should be returned, Yamraj also gave this and said that the goddess demands her third boon; Then the goddess said that I should become the mother of a hundred children from Satyavan - Yamraj said, "ok given.
Yamraj said go Devi, now go back to your home, then Sati Savitri said, O Yamraj, you are taking Satyavan, then how will I succeed in the third boon given by you. Dev was trapped and according to his words, he had to give up Satyavan's life and pleased with the sharp intellect of Savitri, also blessed the to be an unbroken Saubhagyavati.
The essence of the three stories
There are many great women in the pages of history who are known for their chastity. The philosophy of life of all of them teaches this to the present that for a woman, the husband's religion is paramount. It is only a woman who makes the family and she also has the power to unite the family in the land, the demerits of the woman not only destroy her own but also all the members related to her and because of her qualities the deities are also in her. Stay at home and worship.
Even if there is a demerit in the husband, the final decision is valid only of the husband, but the wife must try to rectify the demerits of the husband like the Devi Mandodari used to do, but always remained with Ravana, no matter what the result was, if Had Ravana been a leader in good deeds, Mandodari's chastity would have immortalized him in the pages of history. It was because of Tulsidas's wife Hulsi that he got absorbed in the devotion of Shri Ram, otherwise he would have always been wrapped around his wife's stole and no one knows him today.
If you want to know about such great women, then comment and tell that mainly about whom you want to know first, I will try to tell as soon as possible.
Story of karva chauth
A moneylender had seven sons and a daughter named Karva. Karva was married, so Karva used to observe a fast of Lord Ganesha on every Chauth i.e. Chaturthi and used to break the fast only by offering Arghya to the moon. He used to observe the fast of Chauth for the happiness and prosperity of his family and long life of his husband. Once Karva had gone to her maternal home, then the day of Chaturthi came in her maternal home, so Karva thought of keeping the fast of Chauth in her maternal home.
Soon after dawn, Karva started the fast of Chaturthi dedicated to Ganesh ji. Everything was going well till evening, but as soon as evening, Karva's parents, seven brothers and their wives gathered for food, then the brothers asked their sister Karva to have food, but Karva refused saying that I will eat food only after offering arghya to moon and the moon has not come out yet, so I will not eat food now.
Karva was not seen from the hungry brothers and a brother kept a lamp on a tree somewhere far away and the brothers said to Karva - Sister, look, the moon has come out, let's offer Arghya and have food. The sister did not understand the cleverness of the brothers, and considering the lamp as the moon, offered Arghya and went to have a meal with the brothers.
Karva broke the first morsel, then the hair came out in it, then she broke the second morsel, then Karva sneezed and that morsel fell from the hands of Karva, then Karva broke the third morsel and kept it in her mouth The news has arrived husband's death from her in-laws' house. Karva did not allow her husband to perform the last rites and Karva now performed the fast on every Chauth in her in-laws' house with full devotion and after some time Yamraj returned the life of Karva's husband.
In the name of Karva, women started the fast of Karva Chauth on the Chaturthi of Krishna Paksha of Kartik month and since then this custom has remained intact. Karva had received an inauspicious message on Chauth, so in most of the towns, the elderly do not allow Chauth to go anywhere from their homes. Lord Ganesha was born on Chaturthi, hence the fast of Chaturthi or Chauth is dedicated to Lord Ganesha.
