May God Bless All of Us Towards Another Great Semester in Curtin
Dear members,
There will be a Varalakshmi Pooja conducted in the temple organized by Miri Hindu Society. This pooja is very auspicious and is only celebrated once a year.
Varamahalakshmi literally means the boon granting goddess. Varalakshmi Puja 2009 date is July 31.The Friday before the Full Moon, or Pournami day, of Tamil Month Aadi is chosen to perform Varalakshmi Puja.
Worshipping Goddess Lakshmi on Varalakshmi Vrata day is equivalent to worshipping Ashtalaksmi – the eight goddesses of Wealth, Earth, Learning, Love, Fame, Peace, Pleasure, and Strength
The importance of Varalakshmi Puja is mentioned in the Skanda Purana. It is believed that importance of Varalakshmi Puja was narrated to Goddess Parvati by Lord Shiva.
Goddess Parvati wanted to know about a Vrata that is highly beneficial to a woman, which will help her lead a happy and prosperous life on earth. Lord Shiva then mentioned about the Varamahalakshmi Vratam.
