Kumaar Shashthee Vrat
(Chap 42) Krishn said - "Now I tell you about Kumaar Shashthee Vrat. This day is the day of destroyer of all sins. The same day Kaarttikeya killed Taarakaasur that is why it is called Kumaar Shashthee and is very dear to Kumaar. In Maargsheersh Maas, on the 6th day of Shukla Paksh one must do auspicious Karm because any Karm done this day is immortal. Who does Darshan Kaarttikeya located in south, he undoubtedly gets freed from all kinds of sins, that is why on this day one must worship Kaartikeya's any type of idol - gold, silver or earth.

In the afternoon, after taking bath, sit in Padmaasan form and meditate on Kumaar. Keeping fast reading the following Mantra one should do Abhishek on his head. ( see the Mantra on p 420 ) After this one should worship Soorya Bhagavaan, then again worship Kumaar with this Mantra. ( see the Mantra on p 420 ) Offer fruits and grains also. Worship cock, peacock , his mother Paarvatee also. Do Havan with his names with sesame seeds. Then after eating fruits sleep on the floor.

Do this for 12 months eating these fruits in this order - coconut, lemon, orange, Katahal, lemon, pomegranate, grapes, mango, Bel, Aamalaa, Kakadee, and banana. If these are not available then eat whatever is available. In the morning donate a gold cock to Braahman saying "Senaanee Preeyataam". In 12 months he should worship with these 12 names in this order - Senaanee, Sambhoot, Kraunchaari, Shanmukh, Guh, Gaangeya, Kaartikeya, Swaamee, Baalgrahaagranee, Chhaagpriya, Shaktidhar, and Dwaar and donate with these names only saying such as "Senaane Prreeyataam" etc. After that one should feed Braahman and then eat himself. At the end of the year on Kaartik Maas Shukla Paksh Shashthee worship Kaartikeye with clothes and jewelry and do Havan and give all things to Braahman.

This Vrat is very good for kings. Whoever king goes to fight after worshipping Kaarttikeya thus, he surely wins the fight."

Vijayaa Saptamee Vrat
(Chap 43) Krishn said - "Any Shukla Saptamee falling on Sunday is called Vijayaa Saptamee. This destroys all kinds of sins. Who circumambulates Soorya with fruits, flowers, he gets a qualitative son. First circle with coconut, second with Raktnaagar, third with sour lemon, fourth with banana, fifth with Kooshmaand, sixth with Tendoo fruit, and seventh with Vrintaank fruit; or do 108 circumambulations. One can do with any kind of fruit or dry fruit or gem. While circumambulating Soorya one should not sit, nor touch, nor talk to anybody. Cow Ghee should be offered at the completion of every circle. Then worship Soorya Bhagavaan with the following Mantra. ( see the Mantra on p 421 )

One should keep fast on that day - Nakt Vrat or A-Yaachit Vrat. If somebody does it regularly he becomes perfectly healthy, a poor becomes rich, a childless gets son, and a student gets knowledge. One should do seven such Saptamee and eat Moong on that day, sleep on Palaash leaves on the floor. At the end of the seven Vrat one should worship Soorya, do Havan with 108 Aahuti of "Khalkholkaaya Namah" Mantra and donate a Soorya's golden idol with red cloth and Dakshinaa with the following Mantra to Braahman." ( see the Mantra on p 421) see also below Aaditya Mandal Daan.

Aaditya Mandal Daan
(Chap 44) Krishn said - Now listen to Aaditya Mandal Daan which removes all inauspicious things. Mix jaggery with barley flour and cook it in Ghee make a ball like Soorya. Worship Soorya Bhagavaan, then make a Mandap with red sandalwood paste and establish that ball in it. Invite a Braahman, and along with red cloth and Dakshinaa donate that ball to that Braahman reading this Mantra. (see the Mantra on p 422) Braahman should also recite this Mantra while taking it. (see the Mantra on p 422) Thus donate this on Vijayaa Saptamee (see above) and if possible give such ball everyday. Who does this Daan he becomes king by the grace of Soorya Bhagavaan."

Varjya Saptamee Vrat
(Chap 45) Krishn said - "Raajan, After Uttaraayan has passed, in Shukla Paksh, on Saptamee falling on a Sunday and in male Nakshatra, one should take up this Vrat. He should not use rice, sesame seed, barley, Urad (black gram), Moong (green Gram), wheat, honey, Taamasic food, Kaansaa pot, Kaajal made with oil, and anything ground on stone. Keep Brahmcharya. Eat only Chanaa. Do Tarpan of Devtaa, Pitar and Muni and then worship Soorya. Do Havan of barley and sesame seeds with Ghee. Meditating Soorya Bhagavaan sleep on the floor. Who does this Vrat for one year in this way, he gets all his wishes fulfilled.
