This is the reason behind not keeping Shani idol in the house
In Hinduism, idols of most gods and goddesses are kept at home for worship. But Shani is the only deity whose idol or photo is prohibited in the temple. Let's know more about….
Most of the gods and goddesses are worshiped in Hinduism. People
worship their deity by keeping an idol or photo of it in their house. It
is considered auspicious to have pictures of gods and goddesses in the house. But
in Hinduism it is considered auspicious to keep an idol only in the house where
God is worshiped regularly. But Shani is the only god, we cannot keep his
idol in the house.
According to religious beliefs, it is considered inauspicious to
keep an idol or photo of Lord Shani in the house. There is a mythological
story behind not keeping the idol of Lord Shani in the house. Shani was
cursed accordingly. According to that curse, the person on whom Shani Dev
falls in his sight will face troubles.
Mythology
According to mythology, Lord Shani was a great devotee of Lord Krishna. Shani
Dev was always absorbed in his devotion. Once Shanidev's wife came to meet
him. Even at that time Shani Dev was engrossed in the devotion of Shri
Krishna. Shanidev's wife tried hard to talk to him but to no avail.
This made Shani Dev's wife angry and she cursed Shani Dev. Shanidev's
wife while cursing said that everything will be unlucky on whomsoever
Shanidev's sight falls. After that, Shanidev realized his mistake and
asked his wife to withdraw Shram. But the wife had no power to undo the
curse. It is for this reason that Shani Dev walks with his head down. So
that their vision does not fall on someone and make him unhappy. (Shani
Dev)
Shani Dev's photo or idol is not kept in the house so as not to
fall on the person. Therefore Shani Dev is worshiped only by going to the
temple. Apart from this, the idol of Shani should not be seen with the
eyes but should be touched by his feet.
