About Akshaya Tritiya Pooja
What is Akshaya Tritiya Pooja?
Akshaya Tritiya Pooja on Vaishakha Shukla Tritiya worships Lakshmi-Narayana and Kubera; anything begun or given on this day is believed to grow without end (akshaya).
Akshaya Tritiya is one of the self-auspicious days (swayam siddha muhurtham), so a new venture, gold purchase or griha pravesh can be done without a separate muhurtham.
