Haritalika Teeja (Bha.)

Hartalika Teej

Hartalika Teej is a Hindu festival that is celebrated primarily among women. It is celebrated all over India with unparalleled festive spirit & devotion. Indian states where Hartalika Teej is celebrated on a large scale include- Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkhand, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu.

Legend Associated with Hartalika Teej

As per the ‘Puranas’ and many other Holy Scriptures of the Hindu faith, Goddess Parvati incarnated many times and did severe austerities to get Lord Shiva as Her husband. In Her incarnation as ‘Shailputri’, She was born as King Himalaya’s daughter. Right from Her childhood, under the guidance of Sage Narada, She started worshipping Lord Shiva. Her worship soon took the form of severe austerities which continued for many years and this made King Himalaya very worried about the future of his daughter.

As a result, King Himalaya decided to get Shailputri married to Lord Vishnu. This was unacceptable to Shailputri and She was very distressed. However, a very close female friend of Shailputri secretly took Her to a thick & dense forest so that She could continue with Her austerities.

King Himalaya thought that his daughter had been abducted and sent his troops in search of Her. It must be noted that the literal meaning of the word Hartalika comes from ‘Harat’ (abduction) and ‘Aalika’ (female friend).

Shailputri continued with Her austerities with even more severity & devotion in the forest by forming a makeshift ‘Shiva Linga’ with sand. And then one day, Lord Shiva appeared before Her and granted Her the boon that He will marry Her, which He eventually did.
