Jayanti-Nirnaya

Jayanti Nirnaya 02

तस्मात् तद्दिनमत्यन्तं पुण्यं पापहरं परम्। तस्मात् सर्वैरुपोष्या सा जयन्ती नाम वै सदा। द्विजातिभिर्विशेषेण तद्भक्तैश्च विशेषतः ॥२॥

tasmāt taddinamatyantaṁ puṇyaṁ pāpaharaṁ param। tasmāt sarvairupōṣyā sā jayantī nāma vai sadā। dvijātibhirviśēṣēṇa tadbhaktaiśca viśēṣataḥ ॥2॥

[tasmāt = therefore; taddinamatyantaṁ = that day is supremely; puṇyaṁ = auspicious; pāpaharaṁ = remover of sins; param = of the highest order; tasmāt = therefore; sarvairupōṣyā = It is to be fasted by all; sā jayantī = that Jayanti; nāma = named; vai sadā = always; dvijātibhirviśēṣēṇa = the twice borns in particular; tadbhaktaiśca = and his devottees; viśēṣataḥ = especially;]

Therefore that day is supremely auspicious and removes all sins. Hence, on Jayanti day, fasting is a must for all. Fasting must be observed particularly by the twice borns, also by his special devotees.

बहुचित्रजगद्बहुधाकरणात् परशक्तिरनन्तगुणः परमः ।
सुखरूपममुष्य पदं परमं स्मरतस्तु भविष्यति तत्सततम् ॥
"The one who has created this variegated vast universe with varied forms has infinite power and is of infinite auspicious qualities. He certainly bestows the highest state of bliss to those who meditate on his ever happy essence." -Dwādasha stōtra 4.3
