Origin & History
Source: Traditional Hindi devotional aarti
Author: Traditional
Period: Devotional era
Tulsi, the holy basil, is revered as the goddess Vrinda — a devotee so pure that she became most beloved of Lord Vishnu, who keeps her leaves upon his head and accepts no offering without them. Worshipped daily at the home shrine, especially in the month of Kartik and at Tulsi Vivah, her aarti is sung at dusk with a lamp before the Tulsi plant.
