Story Of Ugadi.... @satyadesai3007 The word Ugadi, also known as Yugadi has been derived from a combination of two words Yuga meaning age, and Adi meaning the beginning of a new age. Yugadi refers to the era we are living in, which is the Kali Yuga, which is believed to have been started after Lord Krishna departed from the world.

There are many stories that are associated with the day of the Ugadi. Some of the stories point to the origin of the festival and others tell us why certain rituals are done the way they are on Ugadi. Today, we shall take a look at some of these stories. Read on to know more. • The Origin Of Ugadi The most important story of Ugadi is perhaps the one associated with the creation of the world as we know it. It is said that when Lord Brahma woke up, he began creating the universe. Lord Brahma started this work of creation on the day that we today celebrate as Ugadi. This was the day on which all of the living and non-living things were conceived in the mind of Lord Brahma. Yugadhikrit Yugadhikrit, or the creator of the Yugas, is the name bestowed on Lord Maha Vishnu. This is because though Lord Brahma created the universe, it is Lord Vishnu who created time and hence, Yugas. Lord Vishnu is also responsible for the upkeep of all the creations. • The Only Festival Celebrated In Honour Of Lord Brahma The scriptures tell us that once Lord Brahma was captured by Moh Maya. Under the influence of Maya, he lusted after Goddess Saraswati. Goddess Saraswati is considered to be Lord Brahma's daughter and in lusting for her, Lord Brahma had sinned. As a punishment, Lord Vishnu cut one of Lord Brahma's four heads. Lord Shiva cursed Lord Brahma that he would never be worshipped by the people. As a result, even today, there is no pooja done in honour of Lord Brahma and there are very few temples dedicated to him. Ugadi is perhaps the only festival that exalts Lord Brahma. • King Shalivahana The calendar that is followed in the region that lies in the Vindhya dates back to the time when the Satavahana King Shalivahana ruled the land. He is also known as Gautamiputra Satakarni. He was a legendary hero who founded the Shalivahana Shaka or empire and started the Shalivahana era. The calendar starts in 78 AD of the Gregorian calendar. • Lord Rama’s Rajyabhishek It is said that the day on which Lord Rama arrived in Ayodhya is celebrated as Diwali. The day of Chaitra Paadyami is celebrated as the day on which Lord Rama was crowned the King of Ayodhya. The day is so auspicious that it was chosen for the coronation of Lord Rama. • Lord Krishna’s Death At the end of the Dwapara Yuga, the sons and grandsons of Lord Krishna perished in a fight. The fight was a result of a curse from a sage. The curse also ultimately led to the death of Lord Krishna when an arrow struck him. It is said that he passed away on the day of Ugadi. Lord Ved Vyasa said - Yesmin Krishno divamvyataha, Tasmat eeva pratipannam Kaliyugam. ------------------------------------------------------------------- [8BEiabHssuk] |
