Importance of Mahalakshmi fast
According to religious texts, when Mother Lakshmi appeared at the time of sea churning, the gods considered her to be the presiding deity of wealth and prosperity, from then on the tradition of Mahalakshmi fast started. This fast lasts for 16 days in the month of Ashwin from Bhadrapada month to Ashwin month and is the best means to get the grace of the mother, but not everyone is able to fast for so many days amidst the busyness of life. For such devotees, the remedy of lotus flowers and lamps is considered to be the simplest and effective.
Lotus flower remedy
Kamal Devi is the favorite flower of Lakshmi and she herself sits on the lotus. If a devotee is unable to fast for 16 days, then he should offer red or pink lotus to Mother Lakshmi only on Ashtami or Friday. It is believed that this increases the wealth in the house, suddenly the sum of profit is formed and the special grace of mother Lakshmi is received.
16 lamp remedy
There is a law to light 16 lamps even after not fulfilling the fast. In the evening, lighting 16 lamps in front of Maa Lakshmi gives the fruits of the entire fast. These lamps symbolize the 16 resolutions and desires of life. Any devotee who performs this remedy with reverence, removes poverty from his house and the family does not get a crisis.
Importance of chanting mantra
With both these measures, if ॐ Shree Hrin Klein Mahalakshmai Namah Mantra is chanting 108 times, then its fruit increases manifold. This mantra is very dear to Maa Lakshmi and she is pleased with the devotee who chants it soon.
