Is donating old gold inauspicious?
Ancient religious texts do not provide any clear rules for today's retail-style gold exchange. Hence, the claim that 'Lakshmi goes away' by donating old gold on Dhanteras is not a scientifically proven theory. The tradition of Dhanteras focuses on increasing prosperity and bringing auspicious things into the home. In this sense, exchanging unused or old jewelry for new gold is not depleting wealth, but transforming it.
Religious families may first check the old ornaments and replace them and bring new ornaments or coins home on auspicious occasions. This preserves both tradition and convenience.
What are the auspicious times in 2026?
