Before you begin the Laxmi Puja, proper preparations are crucial. Ensuring a clean and auspicious environment sets the tone for the ceremony and attracts positive energies.

  1. Clean and Purify Your Home: It is believed that Goddess Laxmi resides where cleanliness and order prevail. Start by thoroughly cleaning your home, including your puja room or the place where the Puja will be performed. Pay special attention to your main entrance, as it is said to be the door to prosperity. After cleaning, sprinkle Ganga Jal (holy water) throughout your home to purify the space.
  2. Decorate with Rangoli and Diya: The Rangoli is a traditional, colorful design made at the entrance of the house to welcome Goddess Laxmi. Use vibrant colors, flowers, and diyas (oil lamps) to create a beautiful Rangoli. Light multiple diyas in every corner of your home to eliminate darkness and negative energy.
  3. Set Up the Puja Altar: Prepare a dedicated space for the Laxmi Puja by spreading a clean cloth (preferably red or yellow) on a raised platform. Arrange the idols of Goddess Laxmi and Lord Ganesha (as no Puja starts without invoking Ganesha) on the altar. Place a Kalash (water-filled copper pot) near the idols, symbolizing abundance and life.
  4. Gather Your Puja Items: Ensure that you have the following items ready for the Puja:
    • Idols or pictures of Goddess Laxmi and Lord Ganesha
    • Kalash, filled with water and topped with mango leaves
    • Gold or silver coins, representing wealth
    • Kumkum, Haldi (turmeric), Chandan (sandalwood), and Sindoor
    • Flowers (especially lotus and marigold)
    • Incense sticks (Agarbatti), Diya (oil lamp), and Camphor
    • Sweets and fruits for offerings
    • Silver or brass plates for placing offerings.

Step-by-Step Guide to Perform Laxmi Puja

Once everything is set, the actual process of performing the Laxmi Puja begins. Follow these steps to ensure that youโ€™re performing the rituals correctly:

  1. Invoke Lord Ganesha

The first step of any Puja is to seek the blessings of Lord Ganesha, the remover of obstacles. Light a diya and some incense sticks, and place them in front of Lord Ganeshaโ€™s idol or picture. Offer modak or ladoos, which are Ganeshaโ€™s favorite sweets. Chant the Ganesha Mantra or the following simple prayer:

“Om Gan Ganapataye Namah”

This invocation ensures that the puja proceeds smoothly and without any hindrance.

  1. Kalash Sthapana (Placing the Kalash)

Place a Kalash (a metal pot filled with water) in front of the idols. Put mango leaves on top of the Kalash and place a coconut on it, covering it with a red cloth. This Kalash symbolizes Lord Vishnu, the preserver of the universe, and signifies the abundance of resources in life.

  1. Invoke Goddess Laxmi

Now, offer prayers to Goddess Laxmi, the goddess of wealth and prosperity. Light the diya (preferably made of clay and filled with ghee or mustard oil) and place it in front of her idol. Chant the Laxmi mantra or the following simple prayer:

“Om Shreem Maha Laxmiyei Namah”

Offer fresh flowers, especially lotus, as it is considered sacred to Goddess Laxmi. You can also offer betel leaves, fruits, and sweets (especially Kheer or Ladoo). Place gold or silver coins in front of the idol, symbolizing wealth, and apply kumkum and haldi to them as an offering.

  1. Perform the Laxmi Aarti

After completing the prayer and offerings, itโ€™s time to perform the Laxmi Aarti. You can sing the Laxmi Aarti or play a recorded version, but make sure to participate wholeheartedly. Wave the camphor-lit diya in front of the idols in a circular motion, symbolizing the dispelling of darkness and inviting divine light into your home. Aarti is considered one of the most auspicious parts of the Puja, where everyone gathers and sings praises of the goddess.

After the Aarti, gently touch the flame to your forehead to receive divine blessings.

  1. Offer Naivedyam and Bhog

Finally, offer Naivedyam (food offerings) to Goddess Laxmi and Lord Ganesha. This typically includes sweets like ladoo, kheer, or any special dishes prepared for Diwali. Distribute these offerings as Prasad among your family members and guests, symbolizing sharing the goddessโ€™s blessings with all.
