A simple how to do deity worship:
- First purify your body and start with a clear and positive mind frame.
- Place the deity idol/frame in a plate.
- In a pot put few drops of Gangajal and fill it with fresh water.
- Now offer some water on deity idol chanting deity's name or mantra.
- Offer small amount of Gomutra and Honey.
- Now again offer water mixed with Gangajal.
- Now lift the idol, wipe it with a soft cloth and place it in the altar.
- Apply these items one by one as a 'Tilak':
- Haldi, Kumkum, Abir, Gulal, Gopi chandan, sandal paste and few rice grains.
- Light incense and diya.
- Offer a small amount of itra by taking it in a cotton. Now, offer dry fruits, candy sugar, betel nuts, clove, cardamom, and haldi. (You may take a small quantity from each of the packets).
- Now, you may tie a small piece of holy thread around your hand.
- Now, light an oil lamp and do Aarti. You may also burn a few pieces of camphor separately in the aarti plate.
-
After the Aarti, distribute the deity offerings (dry fruits and candy sugar) to your family and friends.
