Talk:Lakshmi Puja

Unencyclopedic
Nice start, but this section is unencyclopedic. Please revise it. Mahalaxmi Aarti. Make a mound of rice and place camphor in a thali or an aarti container. After the aarti is over, rotate the lighted aarti container before all gods and the whole house. Place your hands over the lighted camphor and then over yourselves. At the end of the post, you have a video and the words for the Aarti :)

Do the above with faith and devotion and don't worry too much if you do not do it very correctly. Say 'Haraye Namaha' 3 times. That takes care of all the mistakes that you may have committed knowingly or unknowingly during the ritual. What is most important is your faith and love.

After the Aarti, the ‘Palau’ is traditionally recited, followed by the ‘Bhog’. Now, what exactly is the Palau? Why do we do it? What are we doing when we do Bhog? Keep reading ;) Robpinion (talk) 06:19, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

Not a Prayer Or a Song
Lakshmi Puja is Not a Prayer. It used to be once, but now its more of a tradition, a bit like Chhath actually, and is sung? Who said a song/Mantra is sung! Usually most communities just have a tradition to make women pray to the Goddess(though many voluntarily do) So change that FindMeLost (talk) 04:03, 20 October 2015 (UTC)

Lakshmi Pujan → Lakshmi Puja – Lakshmi Pujan should be moved as the COMMON NAME of this festival is Lakshmi Puja, also spelt as Lakshmi Pooja. .💠 245CMR 💠. •👥📜 15:01, 3 January 2021 (UTC) —Relisting. Andrewa (talk) 02:41, 13 January 2021 (UTC) was redirected page to Lakshmi Puja on 13:07, 24 April 2015‎ by who has only been occasionally active recently.

then moved page Lakshmi Puja to Lakshmi Pujan on 19:03, 14 October 2019‎. They have not now edited for over a year.

Hopefully this RM will bring stability. But we need evidence of what the common name is in reliable English sources. Andrewa (talk) 02:56, 13 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Support yes puja more common than pooja. And both more than pujan. In ictu oculi (talk) 13:38, 13 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Evidence? (I'm removing the subsections as they are pointless now.) Andrewa (talk) 16:44, 13 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Support Lakshmi Puja consistently with Puja (Hinduism) and Lakshmi article spellings.-- Redtigerxyz Talk 15:41, 17 January 2021 (UTC)

Removal of bare URL Maintenance Tag
Hi everyone,

I saw that this article had a maintenance tag on it as some references were bare URL's with linkrot. I have replaced these dead links with new published sources, and have now removed the tag.

Many thanks,
