Tulsi Vivah marks the divine wedding of Tulsi (Holy Basil) and Lord Vishnu, celebrated with devotion and joy across India. It symbolizes the beginning of the auspicious Hindu wedding season and reminds us of the sacred bond between nature and divinity. As families prepare for this beautiful puja, it’s also a time to bring spiritual learning to children — and Modi Toys makes that easier with their inspiring collection of toys rooted in Indian culture.
The Story Behind Tulsi Vivah
According to Hindu mythology, Tulsi Devi was the earthly form of Vrinda, a devout devotee of Lord Vishnu and the wife of demon king Jalandhar. Her unwavering devotion made Jalandhar powerful, even against the gods. To restore balance, Lord Vishnu disguised himself as Jalandhar and broke Vrinda’s meditation. Realizing the truth, Vrinda cursed Vishnu to turn into Shaligram stone and then immolated herself. Later, she was reborn as the sacred Tulsi plant, and Vishnu promised to marry her in his Shaligram form — an event celebrated as Tulsi Vivah.
