Laghu Nariyal

Among the different kinds of coconuts which are used as lucky charms, the Laghu coconut is the tiniest and the smallest one. It is equivalent to the size of a betel nut. The rare fact about the Laghu coconut is its small size and three eyes; they are actually three black dots. It actually means the donor or giver is Lakhsmi as it is known for its bestowment of wealth and comforts of life. It should be wrapped up in a white cloth and should be kept in a safe place in a locker. It is believed that the Goddess Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth is present in those places where the Laghu Nariyal is kept. Generally found in all the sea shores, this Nariyal is also known as the Mini Puja Nariyal. It is also considered as a rare object used for worship. It increases the wealth and prosperity of the person in whose house it is kept. It should always be kept in a clean and sacred part of the house on the occasion of some auspicious day after the consecration process. Along with a coin and some sandalwood paste, this Laghu Nariyal is used as an offering to the deities on special occasions.
