Description of the ritual

Srivyasji said - then make a mandala with five colors on the pure sthanda by performing bathing and daily routine kriya. May the divine radiant lotus be ceremoniously created through the richness of the Vedas. It should have thirty-two pieces and contain saffron and cornea. The king. May Sriharika establish the beautiful throne above Karnika and place Radha, Rama, Bhudevi and Virajaki on it. May the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Lord Krishna, be enshrined directly among those goddesses. Among the eight lotus parties, Radhika's mangalamis are the eight beautiful aunts. Then establish the companions of Lord Krishna in eight groups. Similarly, on sixteen parties, there should be two communities of Sakhis each. Then the wise man should place the conch, chakra, mace, lotus, sword named Nandaka, sharngadhanush, arrow, plough, musal, kaustubhamani, vanamala, srivatsa, nilambar, pitambar, vamsi, and cane near the lotus. Then the learned men of Sarathi, Garuda, Kumuda, Nanda, Sunanda, Chanda, Prachanda, Bal, Mahabal, and Kumudaksha, with a chariot with a taladhvaja and garuda dhvaja beside it, should be set up diligently. Similarly, separate poles should be thrown in all directions. Then give seats to Vishvaksena, Shiva, Brahma, Durga, Lakshmi, Ganesha, Navagraha, Varuna, and Shodash Matrikas. Place the Pandita Jan Vetihotra on the altar in front of the lotus. After this, make an appeal and offer asanas, lotuses, special arghas, baths, yajnopavita, clothes, sandalwood, akshat, Madhupark, flowers, incense, lamps, ornaments, delicious naivedya, achaman, tambool, and dakshina. Perform aarti by circumambulating and offering prayers. Then say hello to it. For each karma, there is a different method - use a flower in the invocation, two kusha in the asana, and Shyamadurva and Aparajita in the padya. (Shri VigyanKhand Chapter 6 to 10) Yadav! Beautifully scented flowers of Arghya should be kept. The king! Add sandalwood, khus, camphor, kumkum, and agaroo to the water in a bowl. Excellency! This type of water is best for a bath. Amla and lotus should be given in Madhuparka, Ashtagandha in incense and camphor in lamps. Yajnopavita in yellow, Pitambar in cloth, gold in place of Bhushan and kumkum and sandalwood in place of Gandhara should be given. Tulsi leaves are considered the best among flowers, rice is considered the best among the akshatos, and a variety of cooked and cooked food items are considered the best among the naivedyas. Only Ganges water and Yamuna water are in the water. The king! After the meal, add nutmeg and walnuts to the boiling water. Add the cloves and cardamom to the tambool. Offer gold in place of dakshina. It is worth wandering around in the episode of circumambulation and taking gourd in the aarti. Your Majesty! The prayer should consist of a loving devotion to Lord Srihariki and, instead of salutations, a humble prostration to the Sashthanga. The priest should then purify himself and tie the lamp with the Dwadashakshara mantra and place all the puja materials in front of the deity. 1-24 |
