Significance Of Lakshmi Maa Pujan On Diwali Night:

As per Hindu mythology, Lakshmi is the Goddess of Wealth and Prosperity, and she is worshipped for success, promotion, and personal virtues. People worship her for spiritual and material prosperity. It is believed that she aids in the removal of obstacles that prevent people from following their spiritual path or conducting their businesses.

People perform Lakshmi Pujan to please Goddess Lakshmi, who is considered the Goddess of wealth and prosperity because wealth is the most important component for maintaining and progressing in our lives. In this context, wealth refers to more than just money. It entails seeking abundance in terms of knowledge, skills, and talents. Lakshmi is the energy that represents a person's total material and spiritual well-being.

It is believed that by worshipping Lakshmi i, you can achieve your true life goal because she is the Shakti who guides you to your source. When people forget that they are a part of the whole, they tend to feel small and insecure. AdiLakshmi connects us to that source and brings us strength and calm.
