It is a festival signifying prosperity and a new start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The day is not just auspicious for Maharashtrians, but for it is of significance for the Telugu Hindus, Kannada Hindus &amp; has an auspicious significance in north India as well as it marks the start of Navratras.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The festival is also linked to being the day when God Brahma is said to have created the universe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And for me personally, it was the day of Gudi Padwa itself when we tried shifting to our new home back in 2005.

Celebrations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With festivals come celebrations \u2013 And celebrations include cleaning, rituals and tasty food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But, considering that Gudi Padwa is among the most auspicious days for Hindus, we try to start with something positive or buy gold or a vehicle or a home and so on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Allow me to ask you a slightly personal question here \u2013 how many of us have thought in the past or even today, especially after seeing all those discounts on homes and cars, that by next Gudi Padwa we will also be amongst the shoppers on this auspicious day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But, the day comes and the day goes \u2013 festivals come and festival go. But, often due to our short term financial commitments, we have to compromise on the bigger dreams we have for ourselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let me give you a small advice today.
