As one would know, in Vedic Astrology the importance of Lord Saturn has been mentioned repeatedly. There are many evidences which has been stating the greatness of lord Saturn. In fact, if one knows about The Greatness of Saturn, it would be clear that Saturn is the strongest among the Nav-Graha.
Shani Dev is the son of Surya Dev and Chhaya Devi. Therefore, he is also the brother of Lord Yama and his Sister Yami. The former is the God of death. Lord Shani plays the role of a judge, very similarly to that of his brother Yama. The difference is that while Lord Shani rewards or punishes a person as per their deeds during their lifetime, Lord Yama rewards or punishes a person after their death. Hence the best way to please both is to follow the path of Karma or Duty in one’s life.
