Why We Have A Prayer Room In Our Homes

0 Comments4 min Read

Most Indian homes have a prayer room or altar. A lamp is lit, and the deities are worshipped each day. Other spiritual practices like japa (repetition of the Lord's name), meditation, parayana (reading of the scriptures), prayers, devotional singing etc. are also performed here. Also dedicated worships on auspicious occasions like birthdays, anniversaries, festivals and the like are celebrated.  The entire family worships the deities in harmony together.

The Lord is the owner of each and every creation of the universe. Thus, He is also the owner of the place we reside in. The prayer room is the Master room of the house. We are the earthly occupants of His property. This notion rids us of false pride and possessiveness. The ideal attitude to take is to regard the Lord as the true owner of our homes and ourselves as caretakers of His home. But if that is rather difficult, we could at least think of Him as a very welcome guest. Just as we would house an important guest in the best comfort, so too we felicitate the Lord's presence in our homes by having a prayer room or altar, which is, at all times, kept clean and well-decorated.

Also, the Lord is all-pervading. To remind us that He resides in our homes with us, we have prayer rooms. Without the grace of the Lord, no task can be successfully or easily accomplished. We invoke His grace by communing with Him in the prayer room each day and on special occasions.

Each room in a house is dedicated to a specific function like the bedroom for resting, the drawing room to receive guests, the kitchen for cooking etc. The furniture, decor and the atmosphere of each room are made conducive to the purpose it serves. So too for the purpose of meditation, worship and prayer, we should have a conducive atmosphere; hence the need for a prayer room. Sacred thoughts and sound vibrations pervade the place and influence the minds of those who spend time there. Spiritual thoughts and vibrations accumulated through regular meditation, worship and chanting pervade the prayer room. Even when we are tired or agitated, by just sitting in the prayer room for a while, we feel calm, rejuvenated and spiritually uplifted.
