    Puja information [13]

    Puja; Sanskrit: "reverence" or "worship") is a religious ritual which most humans perform every morning after bathing and dressing but prior to taking any food or drink.

    Puja is seen as a way of relating humans to the domain and actions of the divine, and can be performed for anything considered divine, from Vishnu to a holy tree.

    Puja takes many forms, the simplest of which is darsan, gazing upon an image. The image is not believe to be divine itself; rather, it embodies the divine energy of the deity and provides a connection to the god or goddess.


    Puja also usually includes providing an offering to the object of puja, such as flowers or food, and possibly lighting a candle or incense.
