MEDITATION AND SPIRITUAL PROGRESS

Typically, this mantra should be chanted every day during Brahma Muhurta. Brahma Muhurta is the time between 4 to 6 AM early in the morning. It is an auspicious time when all the divine forces are in complete charge, filling the person with divine energies. Brahma Muhurta also supports and amplifies the effects of chanting mantras. Waking up during Brahma Muhurta and chanting the mantra is a sure road to prosperity.

Process of Chanting the Laxmi Mantra

Now, let us see the process for chanting the mantra to attract positivity and well-being in our lives:  

1. Wake up early, a little before Brahma Muhurta, for better results.  

2. If possible, have a bath. If not, wash your face, mouth, hands, and legs, and wipe off the water from your body.  

3. While chanting the mantra, wear light clothes, preferably cotton.  

4. Sit on a mat. If you face difficulty sitting on a mat, sit on a chair.

5. It is ideal to have a photograph or deity of Vishnu Lakshmi Ji before you.

6. Light a lamp of ghee or clarified butter before you begin the mantra recitation. Keep the lamp in front of the Vishnu Lakshmi photo or deity.  

7. It is ideal that you stand up facing the east or northeast and blow the conch three times loudly to attract divine vibrations. Once you do that, sit on your mat facing the east or northeast.

8. One thing to note: Lakshmi Ji should not be worshiped alone in the photograph. Lakshmi Ji should be accompanied by Shri Vishnu.

This is because Lakshmi Ji does not stay for long without her husband, so she abandons the house early and, in turn, leaves her sister, Alakshmi, who is inauspiciousness incarnate. But if you worship both Vishnu and Lakshmi, then the wealth that accumulates shall help us prosper.

9. Then, facing the deities, you must at least chant three rounds of the mantra, which means 3 X 108 beads. Use a mala made of Tulsi or lotus beads consisting of 108 beads. If you are using Tulsi or Lotus Bead Mala, it is advisable that you are initiated into the Mantra by a God realized Guru.

GURU SHISHYA

This is important so that inadvertent use of these Malas can incur Doshas or Aparadhas, as per scriptures. For the uninitiated, one can safely chant the mantra using Neem mala. After completing 3 rounds of the mala, offer your respects to Lakshmi Ji.

Ensure that the house is kept neat at all times. Excessive dirt or dust in the spot of worship shall attract Alakshmi, the sister of Lakshmi Ji, who brings ill-luck and misfortune. 

Lakshmi Ji can never tolerate an environment that is untidy; she will never appear under such conditions. Also, for best results, ensure that you chant at least 12 malas of this mantra during important functions of Lakshmi Ji, such as Akshaya Tritiya, Dhanteras, and Deepavali.

NO GAMBLING

Ensure that you never ever gamble with money, or even invest in stocks and shares, which is another form of gambling, of the modern age. There are other important days for chanting the mantra to improve wealth status; they are on Purnima and Shukla Paksha (waxing moon).

These days have special vibrations and create an environment to attract the grace of Mother Lakshmi. So, these significant days invite maximum auspiciousness. Any mantra, especially any Lakshmi mantra chanted on Purnima, attracts wealth and prosperity faster and in abundance.
