Friends, Diwali, the biggest Hindu festival, is approaching. Preparations for it can be seen in homes and markets. People across the country celebrate it with great enthusiasm, worshipping Lord Ganesha and Goddess Lakshmi to bring prosperity and happiness to their homes. Celebrated every year on the new moon day of the month of Kartik, it is customary to clean and decorate the home before Diwali. It is believed that a clean and orderly home invites Goddess Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth. Let's learn about these items:
Broken Idols
Broken idols of any deity in your home temple should be removed. Worshiping a damaged idol is considered ineffective and inauspicious.
Broken Glass
Broken glass in the home brings bad luck. To create a positive environment for Goddess Lakshmi, ensure that all broken glass is removed.
Old and torn shoes
Old or worn shoes can symbolize obstacles and negativity. Removing them during cleaning brings wealth and good fortune.
Old broom
Using an old broom is considered inauspicious and can lead to financial difficulties. Replace it with a new broom to maintain cleanliness and invite prosperity.
