Overview
Mangala Gauri Vratham for families in Shivala
Mangala Gauri Vratham is observed on the Tuesdays of the month of Shravan. It is traditionally kept by newly married women, often for the first five years after marriage, in worship of Goddess Gauri as the giver of auspiciousness and a long married life.
Shivala is a residential neighbourhood along the river between Assi and Kedar Ghat. Its lanes lead down to Shivala Ghat and the smaller ghats nearby, which are generally calmer than the busy central stretch of Kashi's riverfront.
