Mumbai: In Hinduism, Goddess Lakshmi holds a revered place as the bringer of wealth, prosperity, and good fortune. In this material world, it is believed that no life can be sustained without the blessings of Dhan (wealth) and Dhaanya (grains)—both of which are governed by Lakshmi. Naturally, every household wishes for her divine presence and grace.
According to traditional belief, when Goddess Lakshmi blesses a home, that family never lacks money, joy, or abundance. But not every home receives her favour. In fact, it is said that before entering any household, she observes a few important things. Here are six key aspects believed to influence whether or not Lakshmi chooses to stay in your home.
Goddess Lakshmi enters homes that follow these 6 things
1. Cleanliness and order
Goddess Lakshmi is said to be deeply fond of cleanliness. A disorganised, dirty household is thought to repel her. If a home is clean, tidy, and well-kept, it is believed to draw her presence and blessings.
2. Peaceful and loving atmosphere
She is known to reside in homes where peace, love, and positivity prevail. If the members of a household live in harmony without frequent arguments or conflict, it increases the likelihood of Lakshmi’s continued blessings.
3. Daily Worship and Spiritual Routine
Regular prayers, lighting of lamps (diya), and devotion to deities create a sacred environment. It is believed that Goddess Lakshmi stays in homes where daily worship and spiritual practices are followed sincerely.
4. Service to the Tulsi plant and cows
According to Hindu beliefs, families who nurture the sacred Tulsi (holy basil) plant and serve cows with devotion are permanently blessed by Goddess Lakshmi. She never turns away from such homes.
5. Honest and ethical living
Homes where deceit, immorality, or unethical actions are not practised are said to attract the goddess. A household that upholds truthfulness and pure intentions becomes a lasting abode for Lakshmi.
6. Decorated entrance with auspicious symbols
A neat and beautifully decorated entrance—adorned with floral garlands or torans—is believed to welcome not just guests, but also divine energy. Lakshmi is thought to be drawn to homes where the entrance is clean, aesthetically pleasing, and spiritually inviting.
By aligning your home with these simple yet sacred values, devotees believe that the blessings of Goddess Lakshmi can be invoked and sustained. After all, it’s not just about wealth—her presence is said to bring peace, purity, and prosperity in every form.
