Based on the Hindu calendar, Shabri Jayanti is well known yearly on the seventh day of the Krishna Paksha of Phalgun month. During the Ramayana period, it was Shabri who fed lord Berry to Lord Shri Ram. That's the reason Shabri attained salvation.
Shabari Mata Devi is worshiped
A special fair is held on this present day in the Sabarimala temple and there's worship. Shabari attained the position of Goddess and likewise attained salvation. On the day of Shabri Jayanti, Shabari is worshiped within the form of Goddess, this jubilee is a symbol of salvation by devotion. Worshiping Shabari Devi gives the grace of devotion in the same way as Shabari had received from Lord Rama.Foot dust brings water into the pond
One day Shabari went to get water in a pond close to the ashram, while a sage was absorbed in penance nearby. When they saw Shabari burning, they called him untouchable and hit a stone on it and a drop of blood flowing from his injury turned all of the water in the pond into the blood. The sage poured Ganga, Yamuna water of all the holy rivers into it, however, the blood didn't turn into water. A few years later, when Lord Rama came there seeking Sita, people urged Lord Rama to turn the blood of the pond into water.Lord Rama asked the sage the history of the pond, then the sage narrated the story of Shabri and the pond. Lord Rama stated sadly, O Guruvar, this blood shouldn't be of the goddess Shabari, but of my heart, which you have injured with abusive words. Shabari runs after listening to the name of Lord Rama. Saying 'Ram Mere Prabhu' when she approaches the pond, the dust of her feet goes into the pond and all of the blood of the pond automatically turns into water. Then Lord Rama says, see the blood turned into water from the dust of Guruvar Shabri's feet.
Animals weren't allowed to sacrifice
Shabari was the daughter of a tribal Bhil. It was very simple to look at but very tender from the heart. His father determined to marry them however it was a custom of the tribals that innocent animals had been sacrificed before any good work. To fulfill this practice, his father brought a hundred sheep goats a day before Shabri's marriage.When Shabri came to know, she started planning to save these animals. Instantly, Shabri thought in her mind and she ran away from the home before daybreak and went to the forest, in order that she may save these innocent animals. Shabari was nicely aware that she would never be able to return to her residence as soon as she went that way, however she first thought of her flocks. Shabari was a devotee of Lord Rama and it was due to his devotion that Lord Rama ate the plum’s of Shabri. It's believed that on this present-day Lord Rama ate his berries.
