Diwali Lakshmi Puja 2025: Puja vidhi
On the day of Lakshmi Puja, devotees should get up early, wear new clothes, perform Shradh for their ancestors, and worship their family gods. Devotees of Goddess Lakshmi also observe a day-long fast, which is broken in the evening after performing the puja.
People decorate their homes and offices with marigold flowers and Ashoka, mango, and banana leaves on the day of Lakshmi Puja. It is also considered auspicious to keep a Kalash covered with an unpeeled coconut on both sides of the main entrance of the home.
While performing the Lakshmi and Ganesha puja, always keep their idols on a raised platform on a red cloth. One should prepare nine slots of Akshata (unbroken rice) for installing Navgraha on the white cloth and prepare sixteen slots of wheat or wheat flour on the red cloth.
