PARASHURAMA was born on this Day and this is the day, Sri Krishna gave Draupadi AKSHAYA PATRA & Enabled her to Serve Lunch to the Entire Entourage of DURVASA Maharshi & Thus Saving Pandavas From his Wrath.
[From Skanda Purana, Brahma Khanda, Vaishakha Mahatmya, Chapter 17-19]
AKSHAYA TRITIYA is the Most Auspicious day from time immemorial, Which falls in VAISHAKHA Month & this Day has been doctrined by Shastras for CHARITY.
DAAN done on AKSHAYA TRITIYA Gives infinite Results, AKSHAYA means Multiplication or infinity. Our Actions or Karma on this day, Should complement Dharma, the Results of which would multiply and Shield & Protect us and our Family.
[From Vishnu Purana, Book 1, Chapter 10]
While the Shastras prescribe one method of celebrating AKSHAYA TRITIYA, we are celebrating it in Complete Contrast, Lured by Commercialism & accumulating Negative results.
What are we doing?
Buying GOLD, With a bias that Gold will fill our Life in infinity, if brought on AKSHAYA TRITIYA. On the contrary, we are increasing the effects of KALI (Adharma) while doing so on this day.
While buying gold isn't at all bad and should be brought, buying it on AKSHAYA TRITIYA isn't Recommended. Let's see why?
Do you know what the favourite place of Kali Purusha is? GOLD!
& IRONICALLY, we are in increasing the effects of ADHARMA (KALI), by buying GOLD on Akshaya Tritiya,
We are falling prey to blatant Commercialism, into buying gold, totally Unaware of what we are Getting on Ourselves.
So, What does Shastras say about the Right Way to celebrate Akshaya Tritiya?
Firstly, Let us talk about the places where MA LAKSHMI resides -
1. Hastha Kumbhasthala (the head of elephant)
2. Padma (Lotus Flower)
3. The place where a Sumangali applies Kumkum (above forehead or maang)
4. The Back portion of GOMATA
[Padma Purana, Uttara Khanda, Chapter 23-24]
So to multiply LAKSHMI, logically, our Karma on this day, should Revolve around these, Shastras clearly mention that the following has to be done on AKSHAYA TRITIYA:
1. UDAKUMBHA DAANAM:
Giving a New Pot, filled with Water, either to a temple or to anyone in need.
2. GALANTHIKA DAANAM:
Donating a Vessel that Enables to Drop Water on Shiva Linga Continuously (Abhisheka)
GALANTHIKA should be donated to a Shiva temple to get rid of extreme difficulties that are burning our lives.
3. GOSEVA:
DAAN Given to Enable Feeding Gomatas, Multiplies infinitely and clears Many Graha Doshas & Misfortunes.
4. GODANAM:
Donating a Cow is One of the important mandatory ritual in one's Lifetime and Performing Godaan onAkshaya Tritiya, satiates infinite Pitru Shrapas & Pitru Doshas that haunt our Fortunes.
5. PITRU TARPANA:
Tarpana given to Pitrus on this day give AKSHAYA PUNYA LOKAS to the departed souls and hence clears all Pitrudoshas that are the major cause for uncertainty, misfortune childlessness and failure.
6. CHANDANA SEVA TO VISHNU:
Any Vishnu idol, should be nicely covered with sandalwood paste at home in the morning and Pooja should be done to the idol. This is why chandanostsava is done in SIMHACHALAM TEMPLE in Andhra Pradesh.
7. VYAJANA, CHATRA, PADARAKSHA DANAM
Means, Donating Hand Fans, Umbrellas and Slippers to needy
8. SUVARNA DANAM:
Gold should Be donated, Ironically what we do is Exactly the opposite.
LETS CELEBRATE AKSHAYA TRITIYA IN THE RIGHT WAY AS TOLD IN THE SHASTRAS 🙏
Opportunity To Perform Godaan On Akshaya Trithiya
"GODAAN IS A MANDATORY RITUAL IN ONE’S LIFETIME"
- Sri Maha Vishnu (Garuda Purana)
Godaan Benefits:
Helps the soul in afterlife to cross the unavoidable horrific river, Vaitarini.
Settles the many debts willingly or unwillingly incurred in lifetimes, and resolves karma
Dissolves Pitru Dosha, by easing the suffering of departed souls by laying them to rest, which in turn rectifies unusual instability, conflict, and misery in one's life
Godaan is a great fortune that cannot be accomplished without Prarabdha (fate) for themselves or for their ancestors. Otherwise, it’s impossible, no matter how much a person's capacity.
Procedure:
Our resident Panditji, Sri Seshkant Mishra ji, a Sanskrit scholar from Varanasi, will perform the ritual & accept the daan.
Gomata will reside in Goshala along with Panditji, and will be taken care of with love and devotion for life.
Those who have the feasibility, may visit Goshala & do the ritual of Godaan, else Video of the ritual will be sent to you.
