The day of Akshaya Tritiya has great significance in Hindu religion. The day is marked by the worship of Lord Vishnu and the Goddess of Wealth, Maa Lakshmi.
This entire day is considered very auspicious, and it is believed that starting anything new, business or job, on this day brings very good and favourable results. It is also believed that there is no need to look for an auspicious time on this day and one can carry out any auspicious work, including weddings on this day, as it is believed that such a marriage will not only last for a long time but will be filled with happiness.
This day is also considered very auspicious to purchase gold and silver as it is believed that it pleases Maa Lakshmi and she comes and resides in the homes of these people for a long time, thus ensuring prosperity.
But at the same time, it is also true that not everyone will be able to purchase gold or silver on the day of Akshaya Tritiya either due to weak financial condition or maybe some other reason.
In such a situation, let us find out what other auspicious items can these people buy on Akshaya Tritiya that will give them the same auspicious results as buying gold and silver. If they buy these things, then the blessings of Mother Lakshmi and Shri Hari remains on that person. This also helps remove their financial constraints at home and brings happiness and prosperity in the long run.
