Vaibhava Lakshmi Vratham – Cost, Vidhi & Book Pandit Online

What is Vaibhava Lakshmi Vratham?

Vaibhava Lakshmi is Lakshmi as the giver of abundance. The vrata is kept with a simple Friday evening puja — a kalasha with a gold ornament or coin placed on rice, kumkum, red flowers and a sweet naivedya — followed by the vrata katha.

The udyapana (completion) puja closes the vow properly: Lakshmi puja with the Shri Sukta or Lakshmi Ashtottara, the vrata katha, and tamboolam with the vrata book for seven or more married women.
