Many people consider this day highly auspicious for new beginnings, such as purchasing vehicles, properties, or valuable items. It is believed that specific remedies and rituals performed on Dussehra bring good fortune and lasting prosperity. Here are some popular rituals that can enhance various aspects of life on this sacred day:

1. Pariharas for Overcoming Obstacles

Lighting a lamp under a Jammi tree on Dussehra, especially during Navami night, is considered an auspicious act that can help resolve legal and other ongoing disputes. It is said to attract luck and blessings from the divine, aiding in the removal of obstacles from one’s path.

2. Eradicating Poverty

On Dussehra, donating a broom to a nearby temple and worshipping Goddess Lakshmi in the evening is considered highly auspicious. Additionally, offering an Aparajita flower (commonly known as the conch flower) brings peace to the household and wards off enemies. These acts are believed to bring stability and abundance into one’s life.

3. Career Advancement and Progress

Dussehra is an opportune time for those seeking growth in their careers or business ventures. Reciting the Sundarakanda from the Ramayana on this day is thought to be powerful, as it can remove obstacles and ensure success in professional endeavors.

4. Wealth and Prosperity

Sighting the Neelkantha bird, or the Indian roller, on Dussehra is believed to be extremely lucky. According to tradition, seeing this bird on Vijayadashami can increase wealth and overall happiness in life.

5. Pathway to Success

For those facing prolonged difficulties in achieving success, there is a special ritual on Dussehra. Wrap a coconut with its fiber in a yellow cloth, place it in a Ram temple with sacred thread and sweets as an offering. This ritual is thought to clear the roadblocks on the path to progress and open up new opportunities.

As we celebrate Dussehra, let us remember the teachings of courage, perseverance, and faith that this day embodies. Performing these simple yet powerful rituals can be a step towards inviting positivity, prosperity, and blessings into our lives.

In the year 2024, Shukla Paksha Dashami Tithi will begin on October 12 at 10.58 am and conclude on October 13 at 9.08 am, marking the celebration of Vijayadashami (Dussehra) on the 12th of October.

Dussehra is celebrated to honor Rama’s victory over Ravana and also signifies the slaying of the demon Mahishasura by Goddess Durga on Vijaya Dashami after a nine-day battle. This is why Dussehra is also referred to as Sharannavaratri and Devi Navratri. During these nine days, various forms of Goddess Durga are adorned, and special pujas are conducted.

In West Bengal, Vijayadasami is observed with grand festivities. On Dussehra day, Shami Puja is performed, where the leaves of the Shami tree are exchanged for gold as a symbol of good luck and prosperity. Bengalis celebrate Bijoy Dashami on the tenth day of Durga Puja, culminating in the immersion of Goddess Durga idols in the river.

Additionally, Shami Puja, Aparajita Puja, and witnessing Palapitta are considered auspicious traditions on Dussehra day.
