Sakat Chauth Vrat Katha: The Story Behind Sankashti Chaturthi's Power

• Sakat Chauth (Sankashti Chaturthi) fast is dedicated to Lord Shri Ganesh, considered incomplete without its sacred story.
• A moneylender's wife, initially childless, promised Tilkuṭ offerings to Lord Ganesha for a child and marriage.
• She failed to fulfill her promises, angering Chauth Dev, who took her son from his wedding and placed him on a peepal tree.
• After realizing her mistake and promising a larger offering, Lord Ganesha returned her son, and the marriage was completed.
• The story emphasizes the importance of fulfilling vows made during fasts to receive Lord Ganesha's blessings for happiness and prosperity.

Why It Matters: Fulfill vows made during Sakat Chauth to receive Lord Ganesha's blessings and overcome obstacles.
