Satya Narayan
The Satyanārāyaṇa Pūjā or Satyanārāyaṇa Vrata Kathā is a pūjā (religious ritual worship) dedicated to the Hindu god Satyanārāyaṇa, identified as an avatāra of Viṣṇu in Kali Yuga.
The pūjā is described in the Pratisargaparvan of the Bhaviṣya Purāṇa and in the printed Bengali edition of the Revā Khaṇḍa, a part of the Skanda Purāṇa. Additionally, Satyanārāyaṇa was a popular subject in medieval Bengali literature. Scholars state Satyanārāyaṇa is a syncretic form of Satya Pīr of Bengal, and has been subject to variable levels of Sanskritization and accommodation into classical Vaiṣṇava avatāra theology.
The pūjā involves the recitation of the Satyanārāyaṇa vrata kathā, a collection of tales involving a poor brāhmaṇa, a woodcutter, a sea-merchant and his family, and sometimes a king. The theme of the stories is that a worshipper who promises to undertake the worship of Satyanārāyaṇa and performs his pūjā will be delivered economic prosperity; those who fail to keep their promise are punished.
