The first Tuesday of the Jyestha month holds great significance, especially as it coincides with the Mool Nakshatra and Shiv Yoga. Worshipping Lord Hanuman on this day is believed to yield greater rewards. This particular Tuesday is referred to as Bada Mangal, and while every Tuesday is dedicated to Hanuman, this month offers a unique opportunity for those who may not regularly participate in worship.


Special Tuesdays in Jyestha Month

Due to the occurrence of an additional Jyestha month this year, there are not four but eight significant Tuesdays. The first of these is today, followed by others on May 12, May 19, May 26, June 2, June 9, June 16, and the final Tuesday on June 23. Engaging in specific rituals on Bada Mangal is believed to bring auspicious results.


Rituals to Perform on Bada Mangal
  • If you are facing conflicts in your relationship, take a banana leaf on Tuesday, draw a triangle with saffron vermilion mixed with jasmine oil, and place a bottle of jasmine oil and 50 grams of vermilion in the center. Recite the mantra: 'Avanti Samutthum Sumeshanastha Dharanandanam Raktavastram Samide.' After chanting, offer the oil and vermilion to Hanuman and immerse the banana leaf in a river.
  • To maintain mental clarity, bathe and wear clean clothes, then perform a proper worship of Lord Ganesha, chanting his mantra 108 times: 'Gam Ganapataye Namah.'
  • If the warmth in your marital relationship has faded, take three raw cotton threads, dye them with vermilion and jasmine oil, and wrap them around a neem tree trunk between 6 to 21 times, avoiding the numbers 8, 13, and 16. Afterward, meditate on Ganesha and Mars.
  • For business growth, if you have taken a loan, draw a triangle with turmeric on a plate or banana leaf, light a ghee lamp in front, and place 900 grams of lentils and seven whole red chilies inside. Chant the mantra: 'Agni Sakhasya Bodhi Nah' 1,008 times, or at least 108 times, and dispose of the materials in a river afterward.
  • If family disputes are affecting your children’s relationships, mentally focus on Mars and chant his mantra 51 times: 'Om Kram Kreem Kraum Sah Bhaumaya Namah.'
  • To attract favorable outcomes, take a banana leaf, draw a triangle with turmeric, place 27 neem leaves in front, light a ghee lamp, and chant the mantra: 'Agni Sakhyam Vrinimahe' 108 times, disposing of the materials in a river afterward.
  • If your child is of marriageable age, chant Ganesha's Haridra mantra for finding a suitable partner: 'Om Hum Gam Glaum Haridra Ganapataye Varavarada Sarvajana Hrudayam Stambhaya Stambhaya Swaha.'
  • If you feel drained, request a small piece of chocolate-colored fabric from a tailor, cut it into a triangle, and place it with saffron vermilion and jasmine oil dots. Leave it in a secluded spot, pouring honey around it without letting it touch the fabric.
