Story of Bhai Dooj:
According to mythology, the name of Lord Surya Narayan’s wife was Chhaya. Yamraj and Yamuna were born from his womb. Yamuna loved Yamraj very much. Yamraj was called several times to meet his sister Yamuna. But, while Yamraj was busy in his work, he never stopped talking, and Yama could never go.
Then one day Yamraj thought that I am going to defeat the life. Nobody wants to call me home. It is my religion to follow the goodwill that the sister is calling me. While coming to the sister’s house, Yamraj freed the creatures living in hell and suddenly Yamraj reached to meet his sister. Yamuna was very happy to see him. Yamuna adored Yamraj very kindly. Yamraj was tilak to his sister and wished her well. They also made them eat. Yamraj was very happy with this. He asked his sister to ask for a boon. On this, Yamuna asked that every year you come to my house on the second day of the bright fortnight of Kartik month. At the same time, on this day, the brother who will go to his sister’s house and get Tilak done will not have fear of death and death.
Yamraj fulfilled his sister’s blessing by saying Aastastu and took the path of Yamlok by offering priceless clothes to Yamuna. Since then, this festival of Bhai Dooj started being celebrated. It is believed that those who accept hospitality do not fear Yama. That is why Bhaiyuduj is worshiped by Yamraj and Yamuna.
