The Significance of Akshaya Navami

Akshaya Navami is one of the most auspicious days of the year for performing good deeds, known as Daan-Punya. It is said that anything you start on this day continues to grow forever: wealth, happiness, spiritual merit, or success. It is also called Satya Yugadi, the day when the golden era of Satya Yuga began. Akshaya Navami carries the energy of truth, purity, and everlasting abundance. It is considered as sacred as Akshaya Tritiya, which marks the start of Treta Yuga. By fasting, worshipping, or donating on this day, one attains lifelong prosperity and spiritual growth. The blessings of Goddess Lakshmi and Lord Vishnu remain constant throughout life and beyond.

Amla Navami: Worshipping Nature and Divinity Together

Akshaya Navami is also celebrated as Amla Navami, a day devoted to the sacred Amla (Indian gooseberry) tree. The tree is worshipped because it is believed to be the earthly seat of Lakshmi Narayana, representing divine balance and eternal health.

On this day, devotees clean the space under an Amla tree, decorate it with flowers, and prepare food beneath it. The food is first offered to Lord Vishnu and Lord Shiva, symbolising gratitude and humility before partaking in it as prasad. The Amla tree is also known for its powerful healing properties, and worshipping it invites strength and vitality into the home. For deeper devotion, chant the Om Jai Jagdish Hare or Gayatri Mantra. Listen and chant along on AstroSure.ai for clarity and peace of mind.
