Have you ever wondered why Akshaya Tritiya is considered one of the most auspicious times to invest in gold? At OM Jewellers, a pioneering jewellery shop in Borivali, we delve deep into this tradition, bringing you insights and stories from the heart of this cultural celebration.
Unveiling the Endless Prosperity of Akshaya Tritiya
Akshaya Tritiya, also known as Akha Teej, is a revered day in Hindu and Jain cultures, symbolising prosperity and success. The term ‘Akshaya’ in Sanskrit means ‘never diminishing,’ it is believed that any investment made on this day, especially in gold, promises perpetual wealth. This tradition is deeply rooted in historical and mythological stories illustrating the day’s sanctity. It is also the day when the Akshaya Patra, the inexhaustible vessel given to the Pandavas during their exile, was bestowed, symbolising an endless abundance.
Reliving the Golden Legends
According to ancient scriptures, Akshaya Tritiya is the day when the Ganges, the sacred river of India, descended to the earth from the heavens. It is also the day when Lord Krishna presented his friend Sudama with opulence that lasted forever, after receiving a humble offering of rice. These legends highlight the day’s association with everlasting wealth and prosperity, making it a particularly auspicious day for acquiring gold, which has always been a symbol of wealth and status.
Invoking the Aura of Goddess Mahalakshmi
In ancient times, gold was not only a medium of trade but also a significant religious element, often associated with Goddess Mahalakshmi, the deity of wealth and prosperity. It is believed that buying gold on Akshaya Tritiya invites the blessings of Mahalakshmi into one’s home, ensuring a year filled with fortune and success. This connection makes the festival a key event for everyone from young couples and wedding planners to those seeking custom gold and diamond jewellery.
Traditions and Wisdom:
While investing in gold is highly recommended, there are certain practices traditionally followed on this auspicious occasion. Starting new ventures, long-term investments, and buying valuable assets like gold and property are encouraged. However, one should avoid giving or taking loans on this day as it is believed that such transactions can lead to financial setbacks.
