Significance of Lakshmi Panchami: Chaitra Shukla Panchami is known as Lakshmi Panchami. This day is dedicated to Goddess Lakshmi, the Goddess of wealth and prosperity. Lakshmi Panchami is also known as Shri Panchami and Shri Vrata. Shri is another name of Goddess Lakshmi. This day should not be confused with Vasant Panchami which is also known as Shri Panchami but dedicated to Goddess Saraswati, the Goddess of art and knowledge.

The day of Lakshmi Panchami falls during the first week of Yugadi. Worshipping Goddess Lakshmi at the beginning of the year is considered very auspicious. People observe a day long fast and worship Goddess Lakshmi at home.  Some business houses and traders perform elaborate Puja on the very same day.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       Jai Sairam!

Significance of Lakshmi Jayanti:   Lakshmi Jayanti is the birth anniversary of  Goddess Lakshmi. Goddess Lakshmi is the goddess of wealth and prosperity.  It is believed that Goddess Lakshmi was born on Phalguna Purnima during the great churning of milky ocean which is popularly known as Samudra Manthanam. 

                                Phalguna Purnima mostly coincides with Uttara Phalguni Nakshatra.  Hence, the Uttara Phalguni Nakshtra falls on Poornima is celebrated as Lakshmi Jayanti.  The day of Lakshmi Jayanti is significant to appease the Goddess of wealth and prosperity.

Perform Lakshmi Puja, Homam, Archana & Sahasranama Archana.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Jai Sairam!
