When God Shani was in the womb of Chaya, Shiv Bhaktini Chaya was so engrossed in penance of God Shiva that she did not care for her food even. The children of Chaya were Manu, God Shani and Putri Bhadra (Tapti).Īs per the second story, the creation of God Shani was the result of Maharishi Kashyap’s great ‘yagna’. God Surya and Chaya were happy with each other. Elsewhere, the union of God Surya and Chaya begot three children. And she changed her form into that of a mare so that none could recognize her and started her penance. She was fearful of her safety in the jungle because of her youthfulness and beauty. So, Sadnya went to the dense jungles in Uttar Kurukshetra and took repose there. Where would Chaya go? And their secret would be exposed. Then, Saudnya began to worry that if she went back, what would happen to the responsibilities which she had given to Chaya. He told her to go back to her home immediately. Listening to this, her father scolded her very much and told her that without being called, if the daughter returns home, both her and her father would be cursed. And therefore, without telling her husband she had come away. She went home and told her father that she could not stand the radiance of God Surya. Sadnya hander over her responsibilities to Chaya and went away to her parents’ place. But she cautioned her that she must remember that she was Chaya, not Sadnya, and nobody should know this difference. She told her if any problem arose, she should call her and she would come rushing to her. After handing over the children to Chaya, Sadnya told her that Chaya would thereafter play the role of womanhood and nurse her three children.

And, and then the shadow of herself became Suvarna. And if there was opposition, she would go far away to a lonely and undertake great penance.īy strength of her penance, Sadnya created a ‘Chaya’ (shadow) of herself and named her Suvarna. One day, she thought that she would separate from God Surya, go to her parents’ home and undertake great penance. But, she was very upset with the radiance of God Surya. But for God Surya, she was a spouse worshipping wife. Or, by the power of her penance, she could diminish the glare of God Surya. She used to feel that by doing penance she could increase her brilliance. Sadnya could not tolerate the radiance of God Surya. God Soorya was married to Daksha Kanya Sadnya. Foremost and accepted is the one in the ancient ‘Scanda Poorana’ of Kasi Khanda which is as follows. And for bad deeds, he is Sade Saathi, disaster and an enemy.Īs regards the birth of Shani, there are different stories. Therefore, we must understand God Shani as a friend and not as foe. But the result of good deeds will be good. In astrological terms, the bad influence is considered as unlucky. Therefore, when we think good or bad thoughts and make plans, they reach Shani by the strength of his power. Shani’s gravitational power is more than that of the Earth’s. It has twenty two satellites in its ring. The astronauts have viewed the Shani’s colours as beautiful, strong, influencing and eye-catching.

Planet Shani takes 19 years to complete one revolution around the Sun. And its gravitational force is 95 times higher than that of the earth. Its radius is about one billion and 82 crore and 60 lakh kilometers. As per ‘Kaagol Shastra’, the distance of Shani from the earth is 9 crore miles.

This is viewed as unlucky in conventional astrology. Shani occupies the seventh place among the nine planets which govern the world. When we add the 2.5 years in previous and 2.5 years in next rashi together, the time period of 7.5 years is called Saadesaati, and the person faces challenging time during the period.In our routine lives, there is a great importance of the kindness and the power of God Shani. Shani spends 2.5 years (Dhaiya) in each rashi. In Sanskrit Shani is called Sanischara, which means, 'slow mover'. Shani Maharaj is a great devotee of Lord Shiva and Lord Vishnu. Shri Shani Mahatmya describes the story of Shani's life. He is generally depicted in dark complexion, clothed in black. Vishwanaath dharat dhyaan sharan hai tumhaari. Kirit mukut shish sahaj deepat hai lilaari Shyaam ank vakra drasht chaturbhujaa dhaari
