Dhanteras, a Hindu festival celebrating wealth and prosperity, involves a special puja (prayer ritual). The key items for Dhanteras puja include an idol or image of Lord Ganesha and Goddess Lakshmi, diya (oil lamp), incense sticks, camphor, flowers, fruits, sweets, coins, and new clothes. Devotees light the diya, offer prayers to the deities, and seek blessings for prosperity and good fortune on this auspicious day. It’s also customary to purchase gold or silver items as a symbol of wealth and investment on Dhanteras.
