Shree Vara Lakshmi Fest

On this auspicious day every year, married Hindu women with good intentions worship Shree Mahaa Lakshmi, wife of Shree Hari Mahaa Vishnu, for the prosperity of their husband, in-laws, children and their parents.

I fondly remember my beloved mother worshipping the Goddess; I attach a photograph of her performing Pooja on this day many years back. I and my sister are also in the picture. My beloved father took the photograph.  I think that my brother was too young to be there in the picture.

Unfortunately in the past few decades, women who are deceptive in their attitudes and action misuse this previlege and enact a drama.
