That is why should not look to moon on Ganesh Chaturthi




According to our Dharma texts, we should not be seen to the moon on Ganesh because there are false accusations due to the moon sighting this night. In this regard, there are two stories in our religious texts.

Lord Ganesha Curses the Moon: 


When Lord Ganesha was put in the mouth of the yard, he was called as Gajavadan, and due to the first orbiting of the earth as a parent, All the Gods praised him but the moon smiled diminished. He was proud of his beauty. Ganesha understood that the proud pride of the moon makes him ridiculed. Lord Shiva cursed the moon by coming in anger that you will become black from today. Moon realized its mistake.


When he apologized to Shri Ganesh, Ganesha said, after getting the light of the sun, you will be completed one day ie that will be fully published. But today's day will be remembered forever to punish you. Remembering this day, no other person will be proud of his beauty. Any person who will see you today on the fourth day of Bhadrapad month's Shukla Paksha will face false allegation. That is why Shukla Chaturthi of Bhadrapad month is not seen as a moon.


Lord Krishna was accused of stealing:


A Yaduvanshi named Satrajit received the  Symantaka mani by pleasing the Sun God with the penance. The mani used to give gold daily. With its influence, the whole nation was not afraid of disease, non-rain, ie rain, snake, fire, thief etc. One day Satrajit came to the court of Ugrasen. There Shrikrishna was also present. Srikrishna thought that how good would it be if this gem was near King Ugrasen.

Somehow this fact became known to Satrajit. So he gave the gem to his brother Prasenjit. One day Prasenjit went to the other. There, lion killed him. When he did not return, people feared that Krishna wanted that gem. So they must have taken that gem by killing Satrajit. But Mani remained in the mouth Jambwan who took the gem and killed the lion. When Shrikrishna realized that he was being accused of false allegations, he went to the forest in search of truth.


They reached Jambwan's cave and fought for 21 days with Jambwan to take gem. Jambwan finally understood that Lord Shri Krishna is his lord. In the Treta era, he was his lord as Shriram. Jambwan then happily returned to Mani Krishna and married his daughter Jambwanti to Shrikrishna. Shrikrishna entrusted that Mani to Satrajit . Satrajit also pleased with the marriage of his daughter Satyabhama to Shrikrishna.

It is believed that hearing and listening to this incident, Shukla Chaturthi of Bhadrapad month is not seen as a moon.
