Following the worship of Lord Ganesha and Goddess Lakshmi, it is customary to illuminate 11 ghee lamps in close proximity to their idols.
In Hindu culture, Diwali, known as the “Festival of Lights,” carries immense importance. It is a time when houses and establishments are adorned with glowing lamps, representing the victory of brightness over obscurity. The customary Lakshmi Puja, a pivotal aspect of the festivities, involves the veneration of Goddess Lakshmi and Lord Ganesha. Devotees believe that paying homage to them can usher in wealth, joy, and solutions to monetary obstacles, making it common for entrepreneurs to pursue Lakshmi’s blessings for prosperity in business.
If you find your business facing a slump, engaging in certain rituals during Diwali is believed to amplify the chances of boosting your finances. Diwali, commonly celebrated on Amavasya – the new moon day, will fall on October 31st this year, starting at 2:40 PM. Hence, October 31st is deemed more auspicious for Diwali festivities instead of November 1st.
If you are a business owner struggling to achieve financial prosperity, consider implementing the following steps during the festive occasion of Diwali.
Illuminate 11 ghee lamps: Once you have paid reverence to Lord Ganesha and Goddess Lakshmi, brighten 11 ghee lamps in close proximity to the deities. This ritual is thought to draw the favor of Goddess Lakshmi, which can have a beneficial impact on your business and general prosperity.
Consider placing a Gomti Chakra at your shop’s entrance for potential business enhancement. By incorporating this small sacred shell into your Lakshmi Puja ceremony and later securing it in a red cloth before hanging it at the entrance, you may attract growth in your business and financial prosperity.
Position a Broom to the Right of Goddess Lakshmi: When conducting the Lakshmi and Ganesha Puja in your store, remember to place a broom to the right of the deities’ idols. Offer worship to the broom alongside the divine beings. This act signifies the elimination of hindrances, aiding in revitalizing and enhancing any stagnant business activities.
During the Diwali celebration, these age-old practices, deeply intertwined with beliefs and symbolism, are thought to attract good luck and prosperity.
