While some sources suggest performing Puja during Mahanishita Kaal, it is most suitable for the Tantrik community and experienced Pandits. For common devotees, performing Lakshmi Ganesh Puja during Pradosh Kaal is highly recommended. Avoid using Choghadiya Muhurat, as it is meant for travel-related activities rather than Puja.
Why Chopda Pujan is Celebrated?
During Diwali, businessmen perform Chopda Pujan alongside Lakshmi Ganesh Puja. New account books are inaugurated to seek Goddess Lakshmi’s blessings for wealth and success in the coming financial year. This ritual emphasizes financial prosperity and is an essential part of Diwali celebrations in many communities.
By following these traditions and performing the Puja during the recommended Muhurat, devotees can invite wealth, prosperity, and happiness into their homes. Diwali 2025 promises to be an auspicious occasion filled with devotion, rituals, and the spirit of celebration.
