'''Mahalakshmi [[Vratha]]''' or '''[[Varalakshmi Vratam]]''' is a sacred day in [[Hinduism]]. The ceremony is performed by men or women (typically married Hindu ladies) on the Friday before the full moon in the month of [[Shravana]] in the [[Hindu calendar]] (corresponding to August/September in the western calendar). Those who cannot perform it on that day, can do it on any other Friday in that month. This is an important ''Vratha'', meaning a vowed religious observance in [[Sanskrit]]. Varamahalakshmi Vratham is performed more commonly in the southern Indian states of [[Karnataka]], [[Andhra Pradesh]], [[Tamil Nadu]] and also in parts of [[Maharashtra]] and [[Odisha]]. The 2017 dates were 17 August - 12 September.<ref>https://www.templepurohit.com/festival/mahalakshmi-vrat/</ref> | '''Mahalakshmi [[Vratha]]''' or '''[[Varalakshmi Vratam]]''' is a sacred day in [[Hinduism]].
