Overview: Why is the horseshoe considered auspicious?
Premanand Maharaj said that to get rid of Shani dosha, wearing a horseshoe or putting it in the house is not the right solution. He said that the sufferings of life are removed only by correcting true devotion, good deeds and conduct. Not external measures, internal changes are the real solution.
Premanand Maharaj: People have been taking various measures since ancient times to reduce the influence of planets and their pain in Hinduism. Many traditions are followed in particular to avoid suffering to Shani Dev. The most prevalent among them is the use of horses shoe.
It is often seen that people hang a horseshoe at the main gate of their house or wear its ring to get rid of Saturn’s half -and -half or dhaiya. But is it really effective? Does it remove life’s troubles? This question was recently answered by the famous saint Premanand Maharaj, which removed the years -old misconceptions of the devotees.
Why is the horseshoe considered auspicious?
Horseshoe is given special importance in the scriptures.
It is considered a symbol of Shani Dev.
It is believed that the horseshoe stops negative energy and brings happiness and prosperity to the house.
Many people believe that wearing it or applying it on the door of the house reduces the effect of inauspicious planets of Shani dosha and horoscope.
For this reason, many people adopt it as a solution to their problems. But Premanand Maharaj’s approach is completely different on this.
Clear message of Premanand Maharaj
Premanand Maharaj says that it is not right to wear a horseshoe ring. He explained a deep and emotional thing behind it. He said, “The horse who has to bear the torture himself, has been hurt in his hooves, he is unhappy himself. Who is unhappy himself, how can he overcome the sorrow of others?”
Maharaj made it clear that the object of unhappy creature cannot attain happiness. Thus, he completely rejected the prevailing perception that wearing a horseshoe or applying it in the house can prevent Shani dosha.
Real way to remove Saturn’s suffering
Premanand Maharaj also told what is the real way to get rid of Saturn’s sufferings. They believe that wearing a ring or offering oil provides only temporary satisfaction, not a permanent solution. The simplest and true way to relieve the suffering of the planets is to chant the name of God. As long as a person does not improve his conduct, no external remedy is effective.
Maharaj says, “When devotion to God is done with true mind and our conduct is pure, only then the planets also begin to be favorable and the sufferings of life are removed.” Offer yourself at the feet of Hari instead of offering oil
Oil to Shani Dev is right to remove defects?
Often people offer oil to Shani Dev to remove Shani dosha. On this, Premanand Maharaj said, “If you are a true servant of Shri Krishna, then you do not need to offer oil to anyone. Offer yourself at the feet of Hari.” His message was that instead of depending on external measures, increase your inner strength and confidence in God.
When we do true devotion, do good deeds and make our thinking and behavior positive. Only then our life removes disturbances and troubles.
Importance of true devotion
Maharaj also said that Shani dosha or pain of other planets does not disappear only by worship or symbols.
If the person’s mind is full of devotion and virtue, then the planets themselves become favorable.
Devotion is not limited to the temple only to go or worship. It should also be reflected in our thoughts, deeds and conduct.
He urged people not to limit devotion only to external activities, but make it a part of their lives.
