Nagula Chavithi 3 Nag Temples Milk Maha Abhishek
The Vedas and Puranas describe Nag Devtas as protectors of the Earth, guardians of the water element, and protectors of family lineages. Lord Shiva adorns His neck with Vasuki, which is why He is known as 'Nagabhushan'. Lord Vishnu rests upon Adishesha, earning Him the name 'Sheshashayi'. When Nag Devtas are the divine ornaments and resting place of the Supreme Gods, pleasing them is considered an act of pleasing Lord Shiva and Lord Vishnu themselves.
🐍Why Milk Abhishek? What Is Its Connection with Samudra Manthan?
During the Samudra Manthan, Nag Vasuki was used as the rope to churn Mount Mandarachal. The Devas and Asuras pulled him for a thousand years. The friction against the mountain and the flames of fire caused Vasuki's body immense suffering. Seeing his burning body, the divine mothers poured cool, sacred milk over him. The soothing touch of milk relieved his pain, and he bestowed a boon: "Whoever performs my abhishek with milk, I shall relieve them of all Nag-related afflictions, Sarpa Dosh, and the suffering caused by Rahu and Ketu." This is why milk abhishek is considered especially dear and significant on Nagula Chavithi.
🤔What Is the 'Tri-Nag Kavach' and Why Are Three Temples Significant?
In Teerthraj Prayagraj, there are three sacred and spiritually revered shrines dedicated to three great Nag Devtas. Each is associated with relief from different forms of Nag-related afflictions.
🐍Vasuki: The great serpent of Samudra Manthan and the divine ornament adorning Lord Shiva's neck. This is one of only two temples in the world where Kaal Sarp Dosh is ritually addressed; the other is in Nashik. Milk abhishek here is believed to help address the root of Kaal Sarp Dosh.
🐍Takshak: The supreme king of serpents. This 20 lakh-year-old temple is mentioned in the Padma Purana. It is said that whoever visits this temple receives protection from snakebites, along with their entire lineage. Milk abhishek here is associated with protection that extends across generations.
🐍Karkotak: Mentioned in the Skanda Purana, Karkotak Nag's sacred mantra is: 'Visha-Shastra-Agni Santapam Hatva Shantim Karotu Me' Meaning: "May you remove the suffering caused by poison, weapons, and fire, and grant me peace." Milk abhishek here is believed to offer relief from snake-related fears, poison-related afflictions, and various difficulties associated with Rahu and Ketu.
On Nagula Chavithi, offer milk abhishek to the three great Nag Devtas of Teerthraj Prayagraj and seek the blessings of the Tri-Nag Kavach. Seek relief from Kaal Sarp Dosh, Sarpa Dosh, and Rahu-Ketu afflictions through the blessings of three divine powers in a single day.
