We celebrated Vara Mahalakshmi Vratam on July 31st, 2020 virtually. It is believed that worshiping the Goddess Varalakshmi on this day is equivalent to worshiping Ashtalakshmi – the eight goddesses of Wealth, Earth, Wisdom, Love, Fame, Peace, Contentment, and Strength. Pooja was conducted by Patanjali Parimi. Participants had the option of performing the pooja at their own home or watching the pooja conducted. Soulful bajans were sung by several members of the community.
