What is Pradosh Vrat Puja?
Evening worship of Lord Shiva on Trayodashi, the thirteenth lunar day, performed during the twilight window known as pradosh kaal.
When Pradosh falls on a Monday or a Saturday it is called Som Pradosh or Shani Pradosh, and those days are especially popular in Kashi.
ॐ त्र्यम्बकं यजामहे सुगन्धिं पुष्टिवर्धनम्।
उर्वारुकमिव बन्धनान्मृत्योर्मुक्षीय माऽमृतात्॥
Why Families Choose Varanasi for Pradosh Vrat Puja
Evening aarti on the ghats and the ringing of temple bells across the old city make the Pradosh hour in Kashi feel special. Many devotees like to hold the puja at home and then walk to the ghats for the evening aarti.
Varanasi Pandits follow the Hindi vidhi with Pradosh vrat katha, which many families have heard since childhood.
