Dakshanavarti Shankha:-
The Dakshanavarti Shankha is a rare and sacred conch that naturally spirals to the right (dakshina), symbolizing auspiciousness, prosperity, and divine energy in Hindu tradition. Unlike regular conches, this naturally right-spiraling shankha is considered extremely powerful for spiritual practices, rituals, and worship. It is believed to bring wealth, good fortune, and positive vibrations into the environment, while also purifying the mind and surroundings. The Dakshanavarti shankha is often associated with Lord Vishnu and is revered for its ability to enhance meditation, remove obstacles, and strengthen devotion. Its natural formation is considered a gift of nature, making it highly valued by devotees and collectors alike.
Key Features:-
Shape & Identification: The Dakshanavarti shankha opens to the right, distinguishing it from the common left-spiral (Vaamavarti) shankha. Natural varieties have a distinct, lustrous, and smooth white exterior.
Not for Blowing: This shankha is traditionally worshipped and placed on the altar, not used for blowing.
Major Benefits:-
Wealth & Prosperity: Attracts continuous flow of financial abundance, food, and luxuries by invoking Mahalakshmi’s direct blessings.
Vaastu & Energy Correction: Removes Vaastu dosha, wards off negativity, and harmonizes the environment for business, home, or office.
Protection & Healing: Shields against black magic, evil eye, negative spirits, and chronic problems. Water stored overnight in the shankha is said to purify, heal, and energize when sprinkled in the home.
Peace & Harmony: Fosters mental calm, emotional balance, harmony in relationships, and supports spiritual growth and clarity.
Ritual Use: Placed in the altar or northeast direction, worshipped daily with Lakshmi mantras, sandalwood, saffron, and flowers. Especially auspicious for business premises, cash boxes, and places seeking abundant growth.
