When it is sung or recited
When it is sung: At the end of the Satyanarayan puja and katha. That puja is held on Purnima, at a housewarming, a wedding or the start of a new venture, or in thanks when a wish has been fulfilled. Prasad is shared after the aarti.
Meaning
This aarti praises Lord Satyanarayan, the form of Vishnu worshipped as Truth, here called the husband of Lakshmi and the remover of his devotees' sins. The first verses describe the jewelled throne and the sage Narada waving the lamp as bells ring. The next verses point to events from the Satyanarayan katha: appearing as an old Brahmin, favoring a weak Bhil woodcutter and King Chandrachuda, the merchant who lost his faith and then praised the Lord again, and a king who worshipped in the forest with cowherds. The eighth verse mentions prasad of sava (one and a quarter) measures, bananas, dry fruit, incense and a lamp offered with tulsi. The last verse expresses the wish that whoever sings the aarti receives well-being and prosperity.
Please note
A traditional aarti. In one published text (Drik Panchang) the last verse names Shivanand Swami, so he is sometimes given as the composer, but other printed texts have a different last line and we found no reliable confirmation. This page gives the last verse in the form found in most of the sources we checked. Spellings and a few lines are sung slightly differently from family to family.
