Guest guest Posted April 14, 2007 Report Share Posted April 14, 2007 Narahimsaye, Cool, but what day is it for we western jeevas?narasimhaye <no_reply > wrote: Akshaya Tritiya - the most auspicious day for wearing Gold The word Akshaya means that which never diminishes - hence beginnings made or valuables bought on this day are considered certain to bring luck and success. This day is specially important as on this day any thing you donate is shaya or never ending.Akshaya Tritiya marks the beginning of the Treta Yug. The birthday of Parashurama, the sixth incarnation of Vishnu falls on this day. This is one of the most auspicious days according to the Hindu calendar. So this day is considered auspicious for starting new ventures and making new purchases. Things To Do on Akshaya Tritiya On this day articles given, in form of alms, dakshina to guru, these things include grain money, and donations. Anushtaans done for Mahalaxmiji, the Godess of wealth, will be beneficial for blessings of prosperity all year round. Visit Mahalaxmiji mandir, and 4 coins should be thrown in all 4 directions, this will open doors to wealth. Chanting Anang mantra "Om Hloum Hloom Anangaay Phat" makes one physically fit and reduces impotency problems. Married women wear a red thread with vermillion around their necks and invoke good wishes in a Shiv mandir for longevity of their husbands. Unmarried ones put it on the feet of Lord Shiva to get the husband they wish for. Visit Shiv mandir with neem leaves and after offering to Shiva put under the pillow of a sick person, the person will recover from his illness and evil eyes. /akshaya-tritiya.html Ahhh...imagining that irresistible "new car" smell?
