Harataalika Teeja Vrata Katha

. Shri Harataalika Teeja Vrata Katha. 🌸⛰️

Katha praarambha:

Bhagavaana shiva maata paarvati se kahate hain— he paarvati! Tumane himaalaya parvata par jo kathina tapasya ki thi, usi ke phalasvaroopa hamaara vivaaha sanbhava hua. Aba main tumhen usa gupta vrata ki katha sunaata hoon jise 'harataalika' kaha jaata hai.

Poorva janma mein tuma himaalayaraaja ki putri theen. Baalyakaala se hi tumhaara mana mujhamen (mahaadeva mein) laga tha aura tuma mujhe hi pati roopa mein praapta karana chaahati theen. Apni is ichchha ki poorti ke lie tumane himaalaya parvata ke shikhara par ganga ke tata par ghora tapasya praarambha ki. Tumane baaraha varshon taka niraahaara rahakara, patton ko khaakara aura baada mein kevala vaayu ka sevana karake tapa kiya. Kadaake ki thanda, moosalaadhaara varsha aura bheeshana garmi mein bhi tumhaara tapa nahin diga.

Tumhaaree is kathora tapasya ko dekhakara tumhaare pita himaalaya bahuta dukhi aura chintita rahane lage. Isi beecha eka dina devarshi naarada tumhaare pita ke paasa aae. Naarada jee ne kahaa— "he giriraaja! Main bhagavaana vishnu ke bhejane par yahan aaya hoon. Ve aapki putri paarvati ki tapasya se prasanna hain aura unase vivaaha karana chaahate hain." himaalayaraaja atyant prasanna hue aura unhonne turanta vishnu jee ke saatha tumhaara vivaaha nishchita kara diya.

Jaba tumhen yaha samaachaara mila ki tumhaara vivaaha vishnu jee se taya ho gaya hai, to tuma bahuta dukhi hueen. Tuma vyaakula hokara sisakane lageen. Tumhaari eka saheli ne jaba tumhen is avastha mein dekha, to usane shoka ka kaarana poochha. Tumane bataayaa— "sakhi! Main mana, vachana aura karma se mahaadeva ko apana pati chuna chuki hoon, lekina mere pita mera vivaaha bhagavaana vishnu se karana chaahate hain. Aba mere paasa praana tyaagane ke alaava koi maarga nahin hai."

Tumhaaree sakhi bahuta chatura thi. Usane kahaa— "praana tyaagane ki aavashyakata nahin hai. Main tumhen eka aise saghana vana mein le jaaoongi jahaan tumhaare pita tumhen na dhoondha saken." tuma apni sakhi ki baata maanakara vana mein chali gaeen. Tumhaare pita ne jaba tumhen ghara par nahin paaya, to ve bahuta dukhi hue aura unhonne chaaron dishaaon mein tumhaari khoja shuroo kara dee.

Vana mein eka nadi ke tata par tumane eka gupha dhoondhi aura vahaan punah tapasya shuroo ki. Bhaadrapada maasa ke shukla paksha ki triteeya tithi ko hasta nakshatra tha. Usa dina tumane reta (baaloo) se mera 'shivalinga' banaaya aura niraahaara rahakara mera vidhi-vidhaana se poojana kiya. Tumane raatri bhara jaagarana kiya aura bhajana-keertana kie. Tumhaari is nisvaartha bhakti aura tapasya se prasanna hokara main usa gupha mein prakata hua aura tumhen varadaana maangane ko kaha. Tumane prarthana ki— "he mahaadeva! Yadi aapa mujha par prasanna hain, to aapa mere pati ke roopa mein mujhe sveekaara karen." mainne 'tathaastu' kaha aura antardhyaana ho gaya.

Agale dina subaha tumane poojana saamagri ka visarjana kiya aura apni sakhi ke saatha vrata ka paarana karne ki taiyaari karne lageen. Usi samay tumhaare pita himaalaya vahaan pahuncha gae. Unhonne tumhen vana mein vyaakula hokara dhoondha liya. Unhonne tumase ghara lautane ki vinati ki aura vana mein rahane ka kaarana poochha. Tumane dridhata se kahaa— "pitaaji! Mainne mahaadeva ko pati roopa mein praapta karne ke lie kathora tapa kiya hai. Yadi aapa mera vivaaha mahaadeva ke saatha karne ka vachana denge, tabhi main ghara chaloongi."

Putree ki jida aura bhakti ke aage himaalayaraaja ko jhukana pada. Unhonne prasannataapoorvaka tumhaari baata maana lee aura vidhi-vidhaana ke saatha hamaara vivaaha sanpanna karaaya. He paarvati! Is vrata ko 'harataalika' isalie kaha jaata hai kyonki tumhaari 'sakhi' ne tumhaara 'harana' (apaharana) karake tumhen vana mein pahunchaaya tha. 'harata' ka arth hai harana karana aura 'aalika' ka arth hai sakhi.
