In Hinduism, giving food to other living beings is considered
highly beneficial. One such food offering is feeding fish with small balls made
of wheat flour on Tuesday. This particular totke (small process) is for solving
all financial problems.
On Tuesday morning or evening, family members or the person
facing financial problem should knead wheat flour and then take it to a river
or pond with fish. Feed the fishes. Continue this process until the desired
result is achieved.
There is a widespread belief among many Hindu communities
especially in North India that feeding fishes will help in solving financial
problems. Fish in Hinduism is a sign of prosperity. The first incarnation of
Vishnu was fish. Goddess Lakshmi also appeared from water.
Such beliefs are not common among all Hindus. It is only
believed by a few Hindus in a specific region.
This belief is more common in North India.
