शनि के प्रकोप से मुक्ति का उपाय — गुरु महाराज जी ने बताया | आज ही करो यमुनाष्टकम् का पाठ
Makar Sankranti marks the auspicious transition of the Sun into Makara (Capricorn), a time especially glorified for spiritual practices.
As many people are concerned about the influence of Shani Dev, Gurudev explains a traditional pastime connected to Makar Sankranti — the meeting of Surya Dev and his son Shani Dev. On this auspicious day, Surya Dev requests that those who take shelter of Yamuna ji should not be troubled by Shani’s difficult influence.
For those who are unable to bathe in the Yamuna physically, remembering her glories with full attention is also powerful. By sincerely reciting or listening to Yamunashtakam, one can mentally take shelter of Yamuna ji and receive her mercy.
