About the Jai Jai Tulsi Mata
Through the month of Kartik, women light a lamp before the tulsi plant every evening and sing this aarti; on Dev Uthani Ekadashi and the days after, Tulsi is married to Shaligram, the form of Vishnu, in Tulsi Vivah. The aarti praises Tulsi as dearer to Hari than anything, the plant that crowns his head and protects the home from illness.
