The next three days of Navaratri belongs to LAKSHMI.
On the next three nights, Goddess Laxmi is worshipped. For the knowledge
of self-realization to dawn on us, we have to first prepare our minds. Our
worship of Goddess Lakshmi is actually our attempt to seek the blessings of the
divine being to help us in obtaining the purification of mind.
Goddess Lakshmi represents wealth that we assume to be only material
wealth. But material wealth is needed only in this world and without self
discipline, respect, sincerity, kindness and love, wealth can make our life
miserable.
The real wealth is the spiritual wealth that we can gain by the practice
of the right values in our lives, which purifies our minds and takes us closer
towards self-realization. Goddess Lakshmi is our source of this true wealth. By
our worship, we invite her to bring into our homes her wealth of noble values
to nourish and purify our minds.
