I learned that in India, beyond the well‑known Diwali festival, there is a tradition of worshipping the goddess Lakshmi on full‑moon days, specifically on Koja‑gari Lakshmi Puja, to pray for the goddess’s protection, abundance, and happiness.
Lakshmi worship on full‑moon days is a recognized cultural practice in India.
The specific observance is called Koja‑gari Lakshmi Puja (コジャガリ・ラクシュミ・プージャー).
The purpose of this puja is to pray for the goddess’s protection, abundance, and happiness.
