Chant This Mantra for Wealth on Diwali

To attain prosperity, chant this mantra on Diwali, bring a picture of Goddess Lakshmi home, and light the first lamp of Diwali at this place to enhance wealth:

Naraka Chaturdashi

Naraka Chaturdashi on October 30, Wednesday (for mantra chanting during the night for siddhi), and on October 31, Thursday (for the ritual oil bath).

Lighting a four-faced lamp on Naraka Chaturdashi is believed to grant freedom from fears of hell. One should light a lamp with four wicks and recite this mantra:
“Datto Deepashwachaturdasyam Narakapritaye Maya. Chaturvarti Samayuktah Sarva Papapanuttaye.”

Pray with the following:
“On Naraka Chaturdashi, I offer a four-faced lamp to please the Lord of Hell and to annihilate all sins.”

Ritual Oil Bath

Though applying oil is typically avoided in Kartika month, the practice of a ritual oil bath at dawn on Naraka Chaturdashi is said to protect from infernal suffering, as per Sanat Kumara Samhita and Dharma Sindhu texts. Delaying the bath until after sunrise may lead to the loss of auspicious deeds.

Recommended Practices for Diwali

1. On Diwali, Lord Rama returned to Ayodhya, symbolizing the arrival of knowledge (Rama), devotion (Sita), and detachment (Lakshmana) in life.
2. Keeping a ghee lamp burning till sunrise on Diwali night is considered highly auspicious.
3. Lighting camphor in a silver bowl on Diwali is said to protect the family from the three types of suffering.
4. Lighting a lamp under a Peepal tree on every Amavasya, including Diwali, is believed to please ancestors and deities, inviting positive souls into the home.
5. Performing a tilak with the soil from a cow’s hoof or basil plant on New Year’s Day (the day after Diwali) is said to bring peace and prosperity.
6. Lighting a ghee lamp under an Ashoka tree on Diwali evening is considered highly beneficial.

Best wishes, blessings, and congratulations to those celebrating their birthday today.
