Varalakshmi Puja 2022: Simple Tips To Decorate Varalakshmi Idol
The Varalakshmi Vratha is soon coming and the celebrations need to be grand and colourful. The ceremony is performed on Friday (before the full moon) in the month of Shravan (according to the Hindu calendar). The Vrata (religious observance) is performed in the southern states of India. This year it will be celebrated on 12 August.
Varalakshmi pooja is performed by Hindu women to seek the blessings of the goddess Lakshmi who is the abode of wealth and prosperity. As per mythology, a pious woman Charumati dreamt of lord Shiva and Parvati asking her to perform the ritual in order to fulfil her wishes.
On the Lakshmi festival, women clean and deck up homes with rangolis and thoranas (festoons). They wear beautiful sarees and jewellery and then perform the poojas as Lakshmi is wealth. With a well decorated pooja room, women arrange the mandap, and place the Kalash with the lakshmi's vigraham or mukavada of the goddess. Today, we will tell on how to decorate Varalakshmi idol for the lakshmi festival. Take a look.
