Varalakshmi Vrattam or "Nonbu" as it is
called is a powerful vrattam that can ensure prosperity and overall
development in the family. It is observed on July 27, 2012 this year
throughout the world.
As the name implies, this
Varalakshmi vrattam bestows "boons" to the devotees.Generally this
vrattam is taken only if it is celebrated in the family traditionally;
but there is no harm in taking this vrattam voluntarily also. The only
condition is that once you have taken it as a vrattam with proper
"Lakshmi Face" and "Kalash", you have to celebrate it EVERY YEAR
without fail. Even when there is a death in the family in that year,
you are supposed to take the "amman face" to some family that
celebrates it, place it in their pooja with their permission, offer
something as "dakshina" for their conducting the function, and then
bring the amman face back to your house. Such is the procedure;so think
whether this is feasible before taking this vrattam.But even if you
don't take it as a vrattam for life, all can chantLakshmi mantras, beeja
mantras, Lakshmi Sahasranaamam, Kanakadhaara Sthothram, Sri Stuthi,
Sangraha Lakshmi Hrudayam or other slokhas/ mantras on Goddess
Mahalakshmi and get Her Grace. Goddess is Waiting to bestow Her Grace on
that day; we just need to ask Her.
Ladies
who have taken this vrattam vow in earlier years but are in monthly
periods on this day and hence cannot offer the Varalakshmi pooja can
offer the vrattam prayers on the subsequent Friday i.e. on August 3, 2012.
We intend to perform Beejaani sahitaa Lakshmi Homam on Vara Mahaalakshmi day along with recital of other powerful mantras on Her. Those who wish to take part in those as part-sponsors are most welcome. Please note that we won't be sending the homam prasad/ holy ash via post due to logistic/ ritual purity reasons. The inclusion of name/ nakshatra, and gothra in the sankalpam will be deemed to be in-absentia participation for those who are unable to come and attend this personally at our residence.
May Goddess of Fortune smile at us benevolently!
