An auspicious festival welcoming the Goddess of Wealth to our Homes is Lakshmi Pooja.
Almost all the festivals that we celebrate in India, portray our gratitude to the Gods and Goddesses, who has showered blessings upon us in various forms. One of the most vital aspects of life is wealth, Nobody among us will deny this fact.
I am no exception, I prepare myself to clean the house and I get fully involved to welcome the Goddess of Wealth by keeping my tidings spotlessly clean.
On the Amavasya Night, we as a family surrender ourselves at discretion to Lakshmi, chant hymns awaiting her presence. Its such an amazing sight to see the houses lit with the lamps of light on this day.
Let me bring to light in short on the steps to be followed during the pooja.
- * Spread a brand new cloth on a high platform,
- * Keep a golden or silver Kalash on the grains in the middle of the cloth. It is to be filled with water, betel nut, rice grains, a coin and a flower,
- * Decorate the kalash with mango leaves or five kinds of leaves,
- * Place a dish on the Kalash filled with rice grains,
- * Place the idol of Laxmi over the rice grains of Lotus drawn with haldi,
- * On the right, Keep the idol of Ganesha. Begin the puja after placing the things related to business and education. Light the lamp and offer haldi, kumkum and water. Summon to the Goddess to arrive and bless,
- * Recite the mantras whole heartedly. Imagine Lakshmi being showered with gold coins with elephants by her sides, call her by name, Offer the flowers to her,
- * Now bathe the idol of Laxmi with water and Panchamrit by placing it on a plate. The water usually contains Gold ornaments or pearls. Wipe it and place it back on the Kalash. Sprinle Panchamrit on Laxmi with a flower now and then.
Follow these simple steps to be filled with prosperity and wealth in Life. Invoke HER presence and enjoy a bright and wealthy Future.
