chitragupta puja

Monday, October 19, 2009
Chitragupta puja is revered by Kayastha families in North India. On this day they acknowledge the importance of the good deeds and believe that world peace, justice, knowledge and literacy are the four primary virtues dipicted by the form of Shri Chitragupta Maharaj. The puja is also known as Dawat (Inkpot) puja. On the day before the puja Kayastas stop using pen and paper and on the next day, that is on the day of puja, pens and paper are worshipped and respected. All this symbolizes the importance of study in the life of a Kayastha.The Deity or lamination of Lord Chitragupta is placed and detailed puja is carried out and sweets are offered. The earning members of the family give account of their earnings in writing to Chitragupta. They put forth the requirements of money for the coming year and pray for his blessings to get the needed amount.
