In Sanatan Dharma, there is an Adhishthata devta for every tatva, whether it be positive or negative.
One of the most well known example of this is Goddess Lakshmi And Goddess Jyeshtha Lakshmi.
Goddess Lakshmi is the Goddess of beauty, auspiciousness, happiness, prosperity, peace, pleasure, material comforts, friendliness and dearness with all, peace of mind, clean and pure thoughts, modesty, integrity, character, class, valour, strength, power, dominance, love, marriage, the pleasures and sweet moments experienced with loved ones, good tasting food, comfortable bed, servants, good health, long life, knowledge of shastras, sweet and smooth flowing voice, smartness in speech, good fortune, elegance, wisdom, kindness towards all, attractive clothes, fame, popularity, respect and she is the goddess of everything else that may be beautiful, that may be auspicious and that which gives a person pleasure and happiness.
The person who has the grace of Lakshmi automatically achieves everything that he desires in life.
By everything, it means everything.
If you desire siddhi then even that can be achieved by worshipping Goddess Lakshmi.
Like Goddess Lakshmi who is an embodiment of pleasure and beauty, there is her elder sister who is complete opposite of everything mentioned above.
She is the goddess of sorrow, poverty, difficulties, arguments, mental pain, insult, humiliation,etc.
One important thing I want to clarify today sadhaks is that Goddess Lakshmi never rides an owl.
Owl is a vehicle of Goddess Jyeshtha Lakshmi or Alakshmi.
The vehicle of Goddess Mahalakshmi is Garud and not an Owl.
Kartik Maas is one of the significant months of Santana Dharma.
Lord Kuber is worshipped on Dhanteras and goddess Lakshmi is worshipped on Diwali.
But before them, Goddess Alakshmi has to be worshipped on Dwadashi tithi. I.e. one day before Dhanteras.
Now I will be sharing with you the places where Goddess Alakshmi loves to live in and what kind of places she stays away from -
The house where ved mantras are recited, where guests are served and respected with heart, where yagya and daan is done, where people applying bhasma reside - in such places goddess Alakshmi can never live.
It is also a very wrong belief that Goddess Alakshmi is married to Lord Vishnu.
Lord Vishnu has 3 wives - Goddess Lakshmi, Goddess Shri and Goddess Vasudha. All of which are nothing but forms of Goddess Shri or Mahalakshmi.
Goddess Alakshmi is married to Duh-saha Rishi.
Rishi Duh-saha after having married to Goddess Alakshmi went to Maharishi Markandeya to ask him for the places where he can live with Maa Alakshmi.
Markandeya said - The place where shivling is not worshipped, the place where his mantras are not chanted and in fact, where Rudra bhakti is criticized, in such places you both can enter fearlessly.
Other than this, the place where husband and wives fight with each other, where people fight with each other during the night, where people eat food on their own without offering it to younger ones around him, those who don't bath, don't brush, don't clean their face, those who wear dirty clothes wipe their dirty hands on clothes, people who eat, sleep and have sex during sandhya kaal, those who do gambling, those who steal Brahmin's wealth, those who have relations with Para-stri, those who don't keep their feet and hands clean - in such places goddess Alakshmi lives fearlessly.
The house where there are thorny plants, milk excreting plants, palash tree and lemon tree, where there are stems and branches of beans' plants, plants of dophariya, tagar, aparajita, bahula, jatamasi, ajamoda, banana, taad, tamaal, bhilaav, imli, kadamb, khair, bargad, peepal, aam, gular and katahal; houses and gardens where there is regular coming of crows, houses where there is idol of Maa Kali or bhairav - in such places, goddess jyeshtha lives happily.
A lot of jyotish are nowadays recommending people to wear the jad of gular for shanti of Shukra.
Sadhaks, one must not perform such remedies.
No where in the shastra has such remedies been mentioned.
Peepal, gular, palash,etc. And all such trees have a lot of spiritual and ayurvedic significance, but that is at a certain time and situation. Not all the time.
However sadhaks, one must also remember that every rule doesn't apply always.
For example, establishing Bhairav idol is not allowed in house.
But establishing bhairav yantra in the entrances of the house is very very significant.
Especially for those who are sadhak and desire to do lot of pratyaksh darshan sadhana in life.
Without bhairav sthaapan, the house will never have the divinity and purity for getting pratyaksh darshan of Gods and goddesses.
Thus, one has to understand the deeper meaning behind such rules.
For example, it is said that wherever gambling is played, it becomes the residence of goddess Alakshmi.
However, out of the many festivals in Sanatan Dharma, Dyut Krida is also a festival which is remembered as a day when Lord Shiva played gambling with Maa Gauri.
That doesn't mean that Lord Shiva attracted Alakshmi into his life.
The difference between the gambling played between them and those done by others is the intention with which it is done.
Lord Shiva and Maa Parvati didn't play gambling with the lobh of earning some quick money.
Thus, what the rule is really means is that the place where gambling is done by people with the attachment and greed for some quick money, such places will become the residence of Goddess Alakshmi.
The place where there are devotees of Narayan and Rudra, where people applying bhasma are present, where gods are worshipped regularly and those who are busy in the worship of Lord Krishna - Goddess Jyeshtha abandons them from far away.
Those who are worshippers of Brahman, cows, guru, guests and Rudra devotees - they are abandoned from far away.
After this, Duh-saha Rishi told Goddess Alakshmi to stay in the roots of a peepal tree and he himself went to Rasaatal.
After staying there for many days and suffering from hunger, Goddess Jyeshtha started crying. Her crying created havoc in the whole world.
Seeing her sister crying, Goddess Lakshmi went to meet her with Lord Vishnu.
Goddess Alakshmi then told him that his husband has gone to Rasaatal for tapasya and she has been left here suffering from hunger and prayed to Lord Vishnu for providing her with a solution for it.
To which, Lord Vishnu said - Wherever Maa Parvati's, Lord Shiva's and my devotees are criticised, you have the control over their wealth. You must reside forever in the roots of peepal tree. Every Saturday, I will come with Lakshmi at the roots of the peepal tree. Whoever worships me on that day, I will live in his house with Goddess Lakshmi.
Thus, every body must try to offer water to the roots of Peepal tree every Saturday.
Men must not worship peepal every day.
Women can worship peepal tree every day and pray to Goddess Jyeshtha to remove all the poverty from her house and never let goddess affect her house.
Women who offer red or reddish brown flowers and dhoop every day, their house is never affected by poverty or presence of Jyeshtha.
The men who are saubhagyashali, fearless, have good character, focused on their responsibilities, doesn't get angry, bhakt, has gratitude towards those who help him, has control over senses and has sadachar and does worship of his guru - all of these are very dear to Mahalakshmi.
A lot of men in today's times are seeing arguing and saying bitter words, beating their wives. One must never ever do such kind of sins.
Maa Lakshmi is Sarva tatva swaroopini. And every woman in this world is a swaroop of Goddess Lakshmi.
The person who does dwesh with a woman is doing dwesh with Maa Lakshmi and the person who is doing dwesh with Maa Lakshmi does dwesh with the entire world.
I will now be sharing a mantra prayog which can help those sadhaks who are suffering from extreme extreme poverty and difficulties in life.
Keep in mind sadhak that just having money is not everything in life. If having money is all a sadhak wants, then he must worship Lord Kuber and not Maa Lakshmi.
Many people are there in this world who have lot of money but have lots of daridrata.
By performing the mantra prayog I am sharing today, the sadhak will get the blessings of Goddess Alakshmi and he will be freed from all the daridrata and earn great great Shri and aishwarya in life.
The Jyeshtha Mantra is unfailing and giver of pratyaksh siddhi.
It is impossible that sadhak chants this mantra and he doesn't get freedom from daridrata, paap, diseases, sadness, depression, stress and difficulties in life.
Sadhaks the absence of shri is not happiness.
A lot of people sing praises about worship of "Saraswati" and they look at Lakshmi worship with disdainful eyes because such people believe that wealth and money creates lobh or attachment.
In fact, such a blatant and nonsensical thought has been promoted even by those who are learnt and knowledgeable.
One must remember this forever and ever, that no amount of money that has been created by dharma ever can create lobh.
In fact, it is wealth alone that creates vairagya in the end for a grihasth sadhak.
It is always the wealth that has been earnest adharma that creates lobh.
But this truth will not be accepted by such kind of people.
Having a constant thought of how you can fool somebody in a particular moment or situation and earn such extra money, or dupe somebody to earn money - all of these are creators of lobh.
The person who is a sadhak, who worships god with whole heart, who never tries to fool people and earn money by wrongful means - it is impossible for such people to have lobh for their wealth.
Lobh is always created by attachment and the person who worships god every day never faces the pain of attachment.
Such a person keeps on following his dharma and spreading love, kindness, happiness and gratitude in to the world.
Dharma always doesn't mean spirituality. Dharma itself means duty.
Helping your parents, supporting them, doing your work, following your responsibilities,etc. Is also a person's dharma only.
The mantra I am sharing ahead is amogh and unfailing.
In the past, many people have performed this sadhana and earned mighty amount of wealth and prosperity in life.
The mantra I am sharing here should be started from Shukla pratipada.
The sadhak must sit facing north at midnight wearing maroon or brown clothes.
Then, the sadhak must light pure ghee diya and incense sticks.
Then, keep a chowki in front of you and spread a brown cloth on it.
Then, keep a copper plate on it and keep a jyeshtha lakshmi yantra on it.
Then, worship your guru and panch devta.
Then, worship Jyeshtha Maa with panchopchar.
Take a sankalp for your desired wishes.
Then, using a rakt chandan mala, chant 11 malas of this mantra.
Perform this prayog for 21 days.
After end of the prayog, do visarjan of the yantra or donate it to a brahmin along with some dakshina.
Very very quickly, the sadhak will experience huge miracles in his life.
His life will change by leaps and bounds.
The sadhak will start creating so much punya that even while sleeping, huge changes will be occurring in his life.
Each and every day, the sadhak will feel like has reborn in this world.
There will be an increase in his tej, bal, saundarya and parakram.
If the sadhak chants this mantra daily 11 malas for 180 days, no body can stop him from becoming a millionaire, provided that he has the source to earn so much, such as a business or profession.
I can go on and on about the powers of this mantra and still it won't suffice.
However sadhaks, the only thing required by the sadhak other than this would be purusharth I.e. efforts and hard work.
Keep in mind, that god can only support you and give you success in your actions.
But if you are akarmanya I.e. don't do any kind of work or business sitting at home chanting mantras all day then that is never going to help.
God is not going to rain money and prosperity on the sadhak.
He has to get out and work towards achieving it and god will help to make his work successful.
Diseases, poverty, sadness, depression, arguments, debts - this mantra is brahmastra for all of them.
मंत्र -
।। ॐ रक्तज्येष्ठायै विद्महे नीलज्येष्ठायै धीमहि तन्नो लक्ष्मी: प्रचोदयात् ।।
For all those who perform the prayog can also share their experiences in the comments section as inspiration for others, if they want.
