- pronounce mantras properly
- perform achaman (water purification)
- prepare bhoga (food) offerings
- use paraphernalia for worship
- apply tilak (sacred markings on the body)
- performing arati
- Seminar on Deity Worship
- Date: April 30th 2017
- Time: 10.00 am till 4.00 pm (lunch included)
- Location: 243 Avenue Road – Green Room/Govindas based on RSVP
- Speaker: Bhakti Yoga Dasa
Our sacred texts reveal that God has an authorized representation in the Deity form, which is called arcā-vigraha. This arcā-vigraha is an incarnation of the Supreme Lord. Lord Krishna will accept service through that form. The Lord is omnipotent, all-powerful; therefore, by His incarnation as arcā-vigraha, He can accept the services of the devotee.
