However, did you know that donating a Tulsi (Holy Basil) plant on Hanuman Jayanti can help resolve several serious afflictions in your horoscope? Let us find out how.
We celebrate the birth anniversary of Pavanputra (Son of the Wind) Hanuman on the auspicious occasion of Chaitra Purnima. It is a well-known custom to offer Rui (Crown Flower) blossoms and leaves to Lord Hanuman on this day. However, on this year's Hanuman Jayanti, a special remedy the donation of a Tulsi plant could unlock the doors to progress in your life.
Understanding the Connection: Tulsi is revered as an embodiment of Goddess Lakshmi and is extremely dear to Lord Vishnu. Lord Rama is an avatar of Lord Vishnu, and Hanuman is a steadfast devotee of Lord Rama.
Unceasing Blessings: Where Lakshmi resides, Vishnu resides; and where Vishnu resides, Hanuman resides! Therefore, in any home where Tulsi is honored, the divine presence of Lord Rama and Lord Hanuman is automatically established.
Dispelling Negativity: Planting a Tulsi sapling in the home or donating one to the needy on this day helps dissipate negative energy within the household, thereby fostering mental peace.
Remedy for Planetary Afflictions
According to Vedic Astrology, the donation of a Tulsi plant is primarily associated with the planets Saturn (Shani) and Mars (Mangal). Remarkably, Lord Hanuman is the only deity possessing the power to pacify the malefic influences of both Saturn and Mars.

Those experiencing persistent obstacles and mental unrest in their lives due to the influence of the shadow planets, Rahu and Ketu.
