History of Golu
The tradition of Golu, also known as Bommai Golu (Tamil), Bommala Koluvu (Telugu), and Bombe Habba (Kannada), began during the Vijayanagara Empire (14th–16th century), where dolls were displayed to honor divine stories and royalty. Over time, it evolved into a cherished family tradition across South India. Today, kolu bommai arrangements celebrate creativity, devotion, and culture—especially among women and children. Adding this golu doll of Kanakadhara Lakshmi keeps the spirit of this beautiful tradition alive.
The Legend of Kanakadhara Lakshmi
According to the legend, the young Adi Shankaracharya once went door to door seeking alms. He came across a very poor woman who had nothing to offer but a single amla (gooseberry) fruit. Deeply moved by her selflessness and generosity despite her poverty, the young sage composed the Kanakadhara Stotram, a spontaneous hymn in praise of Goddess Lakshmi. Upon hearing the heartfelt verses, Goddess Lakshmi was so pleased by the woman’s pure devotion and Adi Shankara’s compassion that she showered the devotee’s humble home with a rain of golden gooseberries—kanaka (gold) dhara (stream). Thus, Lakshmi earned the name Kanakadhara Lakshmi, the one who blesses with an unending stream of prosperity and grace.
This golu bommai set beautifully represents that miracle—a divine moment where heartfelt devotion led to divine intervention, making it a meaningful addition to your kolu bommai and dassara dolls collection.
