Frequently Asked Questions

Jivitputrika Vrat (also called Jitiya) is a 3-day Hindu fasting ritual observed by mothers on Ashwin Krishna Paksha Ashtami. Mothers keep a strict Nirjala (without water) fast to pray for the long life, health, safety, and prosperity of their children.

Lord Jimutavahana (a benevolent Gandharva king) and Jutiya Mata are worshipped during the puja. Additionally, offerings are made in honor of the legendary Eagle (Chilh) and Jackal (Siyar) from the Vrat Katha.

No. Jivitputrika Vrat is a strict Nirjala fast, meaning mothers refrain from consuming both food and water throughout the Ashtami duration until the Parana time on Navami.

• Consume only pure vegetarian food on Nahai-Khai (no onion, garlic, or non-veg). • Do not swallow saliva intentionally, sleep during the day, or consume water on the main fast day. • Listen to or recite the Jivitputrika Vrat Katha with full devotion.

The fast is broken on Navami Tithi after worshiping Jutiya Mata. Traditional food items used for Parana include Noni ka Saag, Marua (Millet) Roti, Tori ki Sabzi, and special sweet delicacies depending on regional customs.
