What is Vaibhava Lakshmi Vratham?
Vaibhava Lakshmi Vratham is a Friday vow to Goddess Lakshmi kept for 11 or 21 Fridays for prosperity and harmony at home. On the last Friday the vrata is completed with the udyapana puja, when the pandit performs a full Lakshmi puja and the family gives the vrata book and gifts to married women.
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.
