Many types of folk beliefs and notions are prevalent in Sanatan Dharma and our society regarding the happiness, prosperity and good fortune of the house. One of these very common and most heard beliefs is that “If a money plant is stolen from the house of a rich person or a happy family and is planted in one’s house, then money starts raining in the house and all financial problems go away.”
In this matter, many people often secretly pluck leaves or branches of money plant from other people’s houses, rooftops or gardens. But does setting up a stolen money plant really bring wealth to the house? Or is it just a widespread superstition? Let us understand the whole truth of this myth from the perspective of Vastu Shastra and religion.
Is it auspicious to set up a stolen money plant?
According to Vastu Shastra and Astrology, Planting a stolen money plant in the house is considered very inauspicious. It is completely a widespread misconception and superstition that the stolen plant bestows blessings.
Stealing in itself falls into the category of a negative and immoral act (bad karma). When you bring something to your home with any wrong intention or wrong action, it brings with it a lot of negative energy. In such a situation, auspicious or positive results can never be expected from that plant.
What effect does a plant brought without asking have on the house?
According to Vaastu rules, taking anything from any person without his permission directly invites Vaastu defects. If you plant stolen money plant at home, then:
-
Mental stress and distress: Instead of rain of wealth in the house, mental unrest, unnecessary stress and disputes among family members start increasing.
-
Destruction of positive energy: Any item brought in wrong way and maliciously completely contaminates the ‘aura’ of the house and the positive energy present there.
What do the principles of Dharma and Karma say?
In Hindu religious philosophy ‘karma primacy’ has been kept at the top. According to the teachings of Geeta, the results of good deeds are good and the results of bad deeds are bad.
If a person brings a money plant by damaging someone else’s house or by stealing it without asking and thinks that Goddess Lakshmi will be pleased with him, then it is completely baseless. According to the scriptures, touching or taking someone’s thing without permission reduces your accumulated virtues and makes you guilty of sin. Goddess Lakshmi never enters your house on stolen crutches.
