The Divine Benefits Of Worshipping And Donating Amla Tree

The Amla tree is considered sacred. According to Padma and Vishnudharmottara Purana, Lord Vishnu holds it dear, and Goddess Lakshmi also resides in it. Worshipping the Amla tree and donating amla after Amalaki Ekadashi is believed to yield the same merit as donating a thousand cows. It is said to remove diseases, nullify doshas, and resolve financial difficulties.  

On Amalaki Ekadashi, after offering water to the Amla tree, applying its soil to the forehead is believed to bring double success in endeavors and eliminate workplace challenges.
