Thursday and Lord Vishnu
Every day has a lord to which it is dedicated in Hindu mythology. For instance, Lord Surya dev is worshipped on Sunday, Lord Hanuman is honored on Tuesday, and so forth. The day of Lord Vishnu and Sai Baba is also observed on Thursday.
The world was created by Brahma, nevertheless. Shiva the avenging one. For the uninitiated, Vishnu is the God of Protection. According to Hinduism, it is his responsibility to descend to earth at times of turmoil to reestablish a harmonious equilibrium between good and evil. In the tens of thousands of years that have passed since then, it is stated that he has reincarnated nine times. However, Hindu mythology states that he will reincarnate for the tenth and final time when the world is very close to coming to an end.
The Rig Veda refers to the god Lord Vishnu on several occasions, along with several other deities, including Indra Dev. His importance, on the other hand, eclipses that of other deities in later Vedic writings. In the later Vedic period, two of his reincarnation, Rama and Krishna, take the lead. He is so influential that the epics Mahabharata and Ramayana even feature him as a character.
But why should you wear yellow on Thursday?
According to Vedic science, Lord Vishnu and Sai Baba are both connected to the day of the week known as Thursday. Lord Vishnu loves the colour yellow and is known as Pitambar Dhari. As a result, everyone chooses to dress the same on Thursdays. In addition to going to temples and giving offerings of ghee and milk on this day, devotees also fast throughout the day. Jupiter rules Thursday and is thought to dominate the Deity and other planets due to its immensity. Jupiter, Vishnu, and Sai Baba are all named Guru Brihaspati.
Vishnu and Sai Baba as gurus
- Sai Baba was a spiritual leader who imparted the values of forgiveness and love to those who followed him as a Guru. He also emphasized assisting others and recommended they give to gain inner peace. He made no religious or caste-based distinctions. Because he possesses all of these qualities, people look up to him as one of the most respected Gurus who has ever been known.
- Similarly, Vishnu, in his role as the ultimate Guru to the Lords, guided the latter in several different situations. In addition to that, Samudra Manthan was conceptualized by him.
- The account of the gods’ ultimate victory over the demons and their transformation into immortal beings is told in the context of the churning of the Milky Ocean. It was Vishnu himself who suggested that the Lords churn the ocean to retrieve treasures,
- such as the potion of eternity and Goddess Lakshmi. This is something that most people are not aware of.
- Gods alone couldn’t churn the seas, so he reached an agreement with demons. He thanked the demons for their assistance by offering them a portion of the elixir of immortality. He also gave the lords and the demons the advice to utilize Mount Madura as the churning stick and the serpent Vasuki as the rope.
- Vishnu adopted the appearance of Mohini, a lovely woman, to lure the demons and steal the elixir. This helped Gods beat devils and dubbed Lord Vishnu Guru.
- Jupiter’s aspect on any Kundli house increases its meaning. Jupiter-weak people should wear yellow. Similarly, sacred items are often wrapped in yellow cloth.
- In addition to that, the color yellow is connected with Brahmins, who are also considered to be Gurus in one form or another. For the same reasons, wear yellow on Thursday.
