What is Tulsi Vivah?

Tulsi Vivah is the ceremonial marriage of the Tulsi plant, revered as Tulsi Devi, with Lord Vishnu in the form of a Shaligram stone or an image of Krishna. It is celebrated in Kartik, usually on Dwadashi after Devuthani Ekadashi, when Vishnu is said to awaken from his four months of rest.

The ceremony follows the form of a Hindu wedding: the Tulsi plant is dressed as a bride, a mandap of sugarcane is made, and the rituals of kanyadaan, the tying of the knot and the pheras are performed with mantras and songs. Many families who have no daughter perform Tulsi Vivah to experience kanyadaan.

A Pandit leads the vivah vidhi at home, at a temple or for a society celebration, and guides the family on the samagri and the order of the rituals.

Significance

Tulsi is held dear to Lord Vishnu, and no worship of Vishnu is considered complete without tulsi leaves. The marriage of Tulsi and Shaligram celebrates this bond.

Tulsi Vivah marks the traditional start of the wedding season, since auspicious ceremonies resume after Devuthani Ekadashi.

वक्रतुण्ड महाकाय सूर्यकोटि समप्रभ।

निर्विघ्नं कुरु मे देव सर्वकार्येषु सर्वदा॥

Traditional Ganesha prayer
