Why do you light a lamp near Tulsi in the month of Kartik?
Tulsi is the top of all sacred trees like Raavi, Maredu, Kadamba, Jammi etc. According to Hinduism if the lamp is placed in each place it will have different results. Another name for the month of Kartik is Damodar. Damodar means Narayana and Tulsi is the form of Lakshmi. As a result of the curse of Goddess Saraswati, Lakshmi was born as Tulsi on earth. Especially in the month of Kartik, if you put a lamp near Tulsi, it is the result of worshiping Lakshminarayan, so you should worship the lamp near Tulsi in Kartikam. Also, if the lamp is placed too close, there is a risk that the basil plant will wither due to the heat and this will bring sin, so the lamp should be placed so that the plant is not harmed. If a lamp lit near a Tulsi near a house gives hundred percent results, a lamp lit near a Tulsi in a temple gives a thousand percent result.
Where should the Tulsi plant be in the house?
Tulsi should be visible when you wake up. Tulsi is the embodiment of Lakshmi. It is better if the Tulsi Fort where the lamp is worshiped regularly is especially towards the east. Due to Tulsi being opposite the gate, vision defects will disappear. But ensure that no outsider touches the Tulsi. Any side of basil is good. But it is mainly for worship that Tulsi is worn facing the main door. If you put it in the backyard of the house, you can put it in such a way that you can see it when you open the door of the yard.
How many types of Tulsi which Tulsi should be worshiped at home?
According to Hinduism there are 11 thousand types of Tulsi but only 96 types are available on earth. Tulsi found on the banks of river Ganga, on the banks of river Yamuna and on the banks of river Saraswati is the best.
Tulsi found on the banks of river Ganga is called Lakshmi Tulsi, Tulsi found on the banks of Yamuna river is called Krishna Tulsi, Tulsi found on the banks of Saraswati river and other holy places is called Shveta Tulsi. Tulsi in Badarikashram is called Vairagyaprada Tulsi. Tulsi in Dwarka is called Sampatpradhana Tulsi and there are many types of Tulsi. We can worship any Tulsi. There is no rule that we should worship only a particular Tulsi. But among all Tulsi, Krishna Tulsi is the best.
