Overview

Lakshmi Puja for families in Sanath Nagar

Lakshmi Puja honours Goddess Mahalakshmi, the consort of Lord Vishnu, who is associated with shri: prosperity, abundance, grace and auspiciousness. The best-known Lakshmi Puja takes place on Diwali, the Amavasya of Kartik, when homes and shops are lit with diyas to welcome the Goddess.

Sanath Nagar is one of Hyderabad's older working neighbourhoods, grown around factories, the railway line and the colonies built for their staff. Its streets are laid out in blocks of independent houses and modest apartment buildings, many of them held by the same family for two or three generations.

Courtyards and terraces in the older houses suit a homam; clear stored items from around the kund.

For Shraddha, share the ancestor's tithi or date of passing well in advance.

Tell us the family's regional tradition, as households here follow several different customs.

Roads towards Fateh Nagar and the Begumpet side get busy at shift and school hours; morning slots are easier.

If relatives are joining, say how many so seating and prasadam can be planned.

Tell us whether you want a Telugu or North Indian vidhi and your preferred language.

For a business puja, keep account books or a laptop, keys and the cash box ready.
