Deepavali, known as the Festival of Lights, holds a special place in the hearts of Hindus, and Dhanteras, its first day, sees a significant increase in Gold sales across India. The term “Dhanteras” combines “dhan,” symbolizing wealth, and “teras,” signifying the 13th day, making it an auspicious time for Gold transactions.
During Dhanteras, families come together to acquire Gold, whether in the form of jewelry or bullion. Jewelry shops and markets bustle with activity as shoppers select exquisite pieces. Many partake in the time-honored tradition of gifting Gold to symbolize commitment and share in the blessings of prosperity and joy.
But what makes purchasing Gold during Deepavali so auspicious? In Hindu tradition, Gold is seen as the embodiment of Goddess Lakshmi, the Goddess of Wealth. Acquiring Gold on this day is believed to invite Goddess Lakshmi into one’s home, bestowing blessings of abundance upon the family.
Gifting Gold during Diwali goes beyond a display of opulence; it is a deeply ingrained practice. In Indian mythology, Gold is intrinsically connected to Goddess Lakshmi, representing financial well-being. Presenting Gold invokes her blessings, assuring prosperity in the year ahead, symbolizing the illumination of life with wealth and happiness. Beyond its material worth, gifting Gold during Diwali reinforces family bonds, signifying love, respect, and well-wishes for the recipient’s prosperity.
