Tulsi marriage importance

On the day of Tulsi Vivah, the marriage of Shaligram and Tulsi is performed. It is said that whoever does this auspicious act, soon the wedding shehnai plays in their house and the family life passes happily. The marriage of Tulsi and Shaligram is organized in the same way as it is done in the marriage of a girl. Therefore, those who do not have a daughter can earn the virtue of Kanyadaan by getting Tulsi married on this day. Also, those who are facing any kind of problem in the marriage of their daughter, will also get resolved soon and the girl will get a suitable groom. In this way, after completing Tulsi Vivah, the Tulsi plant and Shaligram are donated to a deserving Brahmin.
