Gauri Mahalaxmi: A Tradition of Indian Culture Introduction Gauri Mahalaxmi is one of the beautiful home-based traditions observed in Maharashtra during the Ganesh festival. In many families, Gauri is welcomed into the home with respect, decoration, traditional food, worship and family participation. In Maharashtra, this festival is also known in many places as Mahalakshmi Puja . However, the form and identity of Gauri are not exactly the same in every family. In some traditions she is regarded as Goddess Parvati, in some as Mahalaxmi, and in some traditions as Jyeshtha and Kanishtha Gauri. The method of bringing her home also changes according to region and family custom. Therefore, Gauri Mahalaxmi is not only a religious ritual. It is also a living tradition through which families pass stories, customs, food traditions, artistic skills and cultural knowledge from one generation to another.
