Akshaya Tritiya is considered one of the three-and-a-half most auspicious muhurtas in the Hindu calendar. Religious belief holds that any acts of charity, chanting Japa, or purchases made on this day never undergo 'decay' or depletion; their benefits remain eternal. This year, the festival of Akshaya Tritiya is being celebrated on April 19th. On this day, we perform Lakshmi Puja and purchase gold.
However, to ensure that the blessings of Mother Lakshmi remain with us forever—and to guarantee that our home never faces a shortage of wealth and provisions performing certain 'precise Vastu remedies' before Akshaya Tritiya proves to be extremely fruitful.
So, let us know which 4 items you should place in the grain containers within your kitchen to please Goddess Lakshmi:
It is believed that Goddess Lakshmi takes up permanent residence in a home where the *Annapurna Kaksha* (the kitchen) is kept pure and well-stocked.
1. A ₹10 Coin in Wheat Flour
Wheat flour serves as the primary staple of our diet. Before Akshaya Tritiya, place a clean ₹10 coin inside your flour container. Coins are regarded as symbols of Goddess Lakshmi. Placing a coin in the flour is believed to bring *barkat* (abundance/blessings) to the food supply and enhance the flow of wealth.
2. 5 Cloves in Salt
Salt is considered highly effective in dispelling negative energy. Place 5 cloves inside your salt jar. This combination of cloves and salt helps to eliminate poverty from the household and attracts positive energy. Consequently, it paves the way for liberation from debt.
3. Cinnamon Sticks in Sugar
Sugar symbolizes sweetness, while cinnamon represents prosperity and good fortune. Place two or three pieces of cinnamon in your sugar container. This fosters love among family members and creates new sources of income.
4. Turmeric Root in Rice
Rice grains (Akshata) are a symbol of auspiciousness, while turmeric is extremely dear to Lord Vishnu and Goddess Lakshmi. Place one whole turmeric root in your rice container. This remedy ensures that the household's stock of 'grain' remains inexhaustible (Akshaya) and removes obstacles hindering auspicious undertakings.
Invoke Goddess Lakshmi on Akshaya Tritiya
On April 19th the day of Akshaya Tritiya complete your morning bath and perform the worship of Goddess Lakshmi and the Kubera Yantra. After performing the remedies mentioned above, offer a heartfelt prayer: "O Mother Lakshmi, keep the wealth and grain in our home inexhaustible, and may Your blessings remain upon us forever."
Once the worship on Akshaya Tritiya is concluded, immerse all four of these items in flowing water on the following day.
