Chaturmas, that is, the holy four months when the sleep of the gods begins and the traditions to penance and worship are the most important. In 2025, Chaturmas (Chaturmas 2025) begins on 10 July from Devshayani Ekadashi, and concluding will end on 6 November at Devuthani Ekadashi. This time is considered to be very auspicious from spiritual terms.

During this time, worship of Lord Vishnu is considered to be particularly fruitful, and if we light a lamp in certain places every day, then the obstacles in life can be overcome, stagnant work can be completed and happiness and prosperity also remains in the house. Let’s know in detail the importance of lighting a lamp in Chaturmas and its right places.

Burning lamps during Chaturmas is not just a religious tradition, but is a medium to awaken the positive energy of life. The lamp is considered a symbol of light and faith. When a person lights a lamp daily, not only brings light in his life, but also gets success in mental peace and actions.

1. Light a lamp near the basil plant

Tulsi Mata is considered to be the form of Lakshmi ji, and worshiping Tulsi during Chaturmas is very auspicious. If you light a lamp near a basil plant every evening, then the economic crisis in the house ends and the special grace of Lord Vishnu is received.

While lighting a lamp near Tulsi, chant the mantra “Om Namo Bhagwate Vasudevaya”. This ends negative energy and keeps happiness and peace in the family. Keep in mind that using sesame oil or cow ghee in the lamp is considered auspicious.

2. Light lamp on the main door of the house

The main gate of the house is the place from which positive or negative energy enters. If you light a lamp on the main door every day during Chaturmas, negative powers are not able to enter the house.

This lamp should be lit after sunset at night. This not only brings happiness and peace in the house, but also ends the obstacles to business and jobs. Especially on Saturday night, fill mustard oil in the lamp and put a clove in it – this remedy is special beneficial.

3. Light a lamp at the kitchen and place of worship

The kitchen is considered to be the place of Mata Annapurna. In Chaturmas, lighting a lamp here keeps the auspiciousness in the food and there is never a shortage of food in the house. Also, by lighting a lamp at the place of worship, God’s grace remains continuously and experiences mental peace.

While lighting the lamp in the kitchen, keep in mind that the lamp is kept facing towards the east. While lighting the lamp at the place of worship, chant the mantra “Om Vishnava Namah”.

Benefits of lighting a lamp in Chaturmas

1. The obstacles in the works are overcome

During the Chaturmas, lighting the lamp is reduced by everyday problems. It activates a type of energy that leads the person to positivity. The work that has been stuck in life for a long time also starts suddenly.

2. Lakshmi ji resides in the house

Darkness does not last where the lamp burns. In Chaturmas, lighting a lamp with ghee or sesame oil, mother Lakshmi is pleased and there is an increase of wealth in the house. Especially on Friday, lighting a lamp is very fruitful.

3. Prevention of evil eyes and negative energy

The negative energy of the lamp where the flame burns is destroyed. It is an ancient belief that still comes into experience. Publishing every corner of the house, especially in Chaturmas, is considered very auspicious.

Take special care of these things

• Always keep the lamp in a clean place and clean it before burning.
• Never burn extinguished lamp, always burn new oil and burn it.
• While lighting the lamp, it is necessary to have reverence and faith in the mind, only then it gets full results.
