On Dhanteras, it is considered auspicious to purchase
gold or silver articles or at least one or two new utensils.
It is believed that the new 'Dhan' or some form of precious
metal is a sign of good luck.

"Laxmi Puja" is performed in the evenings when tiny 'Diyas' of clay are lit to drive away the shadows of evil spirits.

'Bhajans' (devotional songs) are also sung in praise of Goddess Laxmi!

Have an auspicious Dhanteras!
