Mangala Gauri Vrat 2022: Mantra/Jaap:

सर्वमंगल मांगल्ये शिवे सवार्थ साधिके।

Sarva mangala mangalye, shive sarvartha sadhike
Sharanye tryambake gauri naaraayani namosthuthe

Mangal Gauri Vrat 2022: Legend

Dharmapala was an extremely wealthy merchant, who was blessed with every creature comfort except an offspring. The couple were in extreme grief about this and worshipped all the deities with immense faith and dedication. As a result, they were blessed with a male offspring, who, at the time of birth, as per the astrologer's words, had very short life expectancy, of about 16 years, which saddened the couple. He was destined to die of snake bite. But hope is the last to die, and hence they brought him up with utmost care and love. Before he turned 16, the parents got him married to a girl, whose mother had been diligently performing Mangal Gouri Vrat from a long time.

Since the mother had earned a lot of punya due to the vrat, the daughter naturally had blessings that had eradicated any chances of widowhood in her life. Dharmapal's son lived on for 100 years. This proved inspiring to scores of married women who began to regularly perform Mangal Gauri vrat in their households hoping to be blessed with a long-lasting marital bliss and long-lived husband.
