Thursday Mantra in Hinduism for Good Luck With Meaning and Benefits
In Hindi, Thursdays are known as Guruwar or Brihaspatiwar. This day is said to be governed by Guru (Brihaspati – Jupiter) and is dedicated to Lord Vishnu, one of the three gods that make up the Hindu Trinity. Lord Vishnu is revered as the Palan Karta or the universe’s protector, and he sustains existence on Earth.
Worshippers of Lord Vishnu aspire to find refuge in Vaikuntha, the heavenly abode of the Lord. Devotees also desire Moksha (liberation) from the vicious cycle of birth, death, and rebirth by worshipping Lord Vishnu.
And since Thursdays are dedicated to Lord Vishnu, the following mantras may be chanted. Consequently, you can beseech to be by reciting your devotional salutations.
