Things to Keep in Mind When Bringing Home a Laxmi-Ganesh Murti for Diwali
Indian families bring home Goddess Laxmi
and Lord Ganesha on the auspicious occasion of Diwali. Before bringing them
home, the house is thoroughly cleaned and decorated. The Laxmi Ganesh murti
is worshipped on the night of Diwali. Here are some things that you must keep
in mind when getting Laxmi-Ganesh murtis for your home this Diwali:
·
Separate Idols: It is advised to buy idols that are separated. Interlinked idols
should not be bought as it is said not to be auspicious.
·
Details: Make sure that the Laxmi idol is not sitting on the owl. This is a
different type of Laxmi murti that is bough when Goddess Laxmi is worshipped
separately. When worshipped together with Lord Ganesh, the Goddess should be
sitting on the Lotus flower and should have one hand placed upright symbolizing
the giving of blessings. On the other hand of the idol should have a shower of
money on it. This will attract wealth and prosperity to your house.
On the other hand, the
Ganesh idol should have the trunk facing towards the left and should have Modak
in his hand. This attracts happiness, success, and prosperity.
·
Posture: Both the Ganesh and the Laxmi murti should be in a sitting
position. Standing idols are considered to be inauspicious. Moreover, a
standing Laxmi is said to be moving and unstable which means that it will not
stay in your house for long but will take its leave very soon.
·
Materials: It is also very important to choose the right material for the
idol. Idols that are made out of clay, copper, wood, or silver and believed to
attract joy and prosperity.

in mind when you are bringing home a Ganesh and Laxmi idol this Diwali. It will
