Karwa Chauth Vrat 2024: Karwa Chauth fast is considered very difficult. On this day, married women keep a Nirjala fast for the whole day without food and water. Karwa Chauth fast is kept for the long life, good health and happy married life of the husband. This year the festival of Karwa Chauth is being celebrated on 20 October 2024. Karwa Chauth fast is considered very difficult due to being Nirjala. In such a situation, it is a bit difficult for the women who are keeping this fast for the first time. If someone’s fast is broken or broken before the puja, then many types of doshas can be applied in this situation. But some remedies have also been given for this in Dharma Shastra. So know what to do if the fast of Karwa Chauth is broken by mistake.
If your Karva Chauth fast is broken by mistake before the puja, then do not panic and do not leave the fast in between. If your fast is broken by mistake, then immediately fold both your hands and apologize to the gods and goddesses for this mistake. After apologizing, take a pledge to do the fast again. To do this remedy, first fill water in your right hand and chant the Kshama Yachana Mantra 51 times. After this, offer the water to the moon. After this your fast will start again.
The apology mantra is-
Avahanam na janami na janami visarjanam. Pooja Chaiva Na Janami Khamsva Parmeshwar.
