Shri Balaji Darshan: Today marks 'Bada Mangal' (Great Tuesday), also known as 'Budhwa Mangal'. This day is dedicated to fasting and worship of Lord Hanuman (Pavanputra). Begin your day by bathing and worshipping the valiant Bajrangbali. Seek the blessings of Shri Balaji at Shri Bageshwar Dham this morning to dispel your troubles; by His grace, your tasks will succeed, and your wishes will be fulfilled.

On this auspicious Tuesday, seek the darshan of Shri Balaji early in the morning. After bathing, perform the worship rituals with due devotion. Offer red sandalwood paste, vermilion (sindoor), red flowers, incense, lamps, fruits, and *naivedya* (sacred food offerings) to Lord Hanuman. Offer *bhog* (ritual food) consisting of jaggery, roasted chickpeas (*chana*), *laddu*, and *rot* (flatbread). If you have a specific wish, offer a red *langot* (loincloth) and a flag (*pataka*) to have it fulfilled.

Lord Hanuman is also immensely pleased when offered a *chola* (ceremonial covering) made of vermilion and jasmine oil. Today is a truly special day, and these measures can ensure the success of your endeavors. To please Lord Hanuman on Tuesday, offer jaggery and roasted chickpeas.

If you do not have the time for all these rituals, simply reciting the Hanuman Chalisa will also bring you benefits. The Hanuman Chalisa extols the virtues, valor, devotion, and glory of Bajrangbali.

There is another simple way to please Lord Hanuman today: wherever you are, remember the name of Lord Shri Ram—Hanuman's beloved Lord. Chanting the name of Ram brings immense joy to Lord Hanuman. Chanting 'Ram' yields a twofold benefit: you receive the grace of Lord Ram Himself, and Bajrangbali grants you His protection.
