Shani_Chalisa 3.0

Shani, also referred to as Chayyaputra, is the son of the sun god Surya and his wife Chhaya. He is commonly depicted as having a dark complexion, clothed in black, and is often illustrated holding a sword, arrows, and two daggers, mounted on a crow.

In astrological teachings, Shani is recognized as a profound teacher and protector of the righteous. He serves as a punisher for individuals who engage in malevolence, betrayal, and unjust revenge. According to tradition, upon opening his eyes for the first time as an infant, an eclipse occurred, symbolizing Shani's significant influence on astrological charts. His role emphasizes the principle of karma, administering rewards and punishments reflective of one's actions throughout life.

The recitation of the Shani Chalisa is believed to alleviate various worldly challenges arising from an unfavorable placement of Shani in an individual’s astrological chart. Commonly cited issues such as delays in marriage or business setbacks may be addressed by reciting the Shani Chalisa 21 times daily for a period of 21 consecutive days.
