The Story Behind Somvaar Vrat Katha
The Somvaar Vrat Katha describes a tale of a poor, but virtuous, Brahman. However, in all of his sufferings, he never missed a Monday fasting. A weekly worship of Shiv ji would be conducted by him with milk, Bel Patra and water offered to the Shivlinga followed by reading the Shiv Ji Vrat Katha with all involvement.
One night, as per the legend, he had a dream in which Lord Shiv Ji came and blessed him with good luck. The following day, however, a rich merchant approached him and employed him in his store. His life altered and ended his suffering. Shiv Ji blessed the Brahmin and the Somvar Vrat story resulted in the transformation of the Brahmin.
