Lakshmi puja in Visakhapatnam
The Kanaka Mahalakshmi temple at Burujupeta gives Vizag a Lakshmi tradition of its own, and the Thursdays of Margasira draw the largest crowds. Many households keep the same Thursdays at home, in addition to Fridays, Varalakshmi Vratham and Deepavali.
Worth planning for
- Thursdays in Margasira fill quickly.
- Keep lamps sheltered from sea breeze.
- Mention if you want a shorter puja for a working day.
