Want to become rich? Worship Goddess Laxmi in Diwali

Wish you a happy and safe Diwali.

Everybody wants to become rich. Unfortunately, some people even adopt illegal means to become rich, which is not at all good. But the real way to get wealth is something else. Undoubtedly, it is the divine blessing which can make you rich.

The night time of Diwali is perfect for worship. Of course it is a tough task to sit for puja when others should be playing with the fire crackers. Okay, you burst crackers till 10 pm and then go for the worship. As such in many cities of our country bursting of fire crackers (beyond a certain decibels) is not permitted after 10 pm.

Worship

Take a holy bath and clean yourself. Bring clean water to be used in the worship. Do the puja the way you regularly do at home. Offer chandan (sandalwood paste), sindoor (vermilion), haldi (turmeric powder), roli (a type of vermilion), kajal (Kohl), flowers and perfume to the Goddess. Also if possible offer Her a new dress and chunri. Light a lamp, show incense stick and then offer sweets and fruits (including dry fruits) with water (in a glass, meant for drinking) and then chant the Shree Shuktam.

Chant Shree Shuktam for 108 times or if not possible chant at least 11 times and finally do arati. Then do a 'sastanga pranam' and beg excuse for the wrongs. 

Performing this ritual with devotion will definitely make you rich. In Kali yug, the Goddess will not appear before you in 'abhaya mudra', like we watch in films or TV serials, to utter the word ‘tathastu’. But you will get wealth. And for that what you need to do is, to keep the ways open so that property would get a medium to reach to you. I mean you should do some business or a job or should provide service, so that money would get a way to come to you through either the customers or your employer. Truth is that everything happens only by the wish of God. You must have heard 'Man supposes, God disposes'. One needs to believe this eternal truth.

N. B. - The worship should be with devotion to the God.
