Hi friends ....Last week we had our annual Bhagavathy sevai at our home on friday...I am sharing with with you all some important pictures...Please have a view.
This Pooja is very famous and done on a daily basis in temples in the month of Aadi or Karkadakam(Malayalam month). It can be done on other days also. By the grace of Bhagavathy I am performing this pooja in aadi maasam for the last six years and I have the privilege to get it done on Fridays(as they are special to Devi). The first photo to start with displays some of the flowers which I had bought for the pooja.
This photo was taken during vinayagar chaturti and gowri pooja in my home.
On first. we have carried out Satyanarayana pooja at my residence. Downloading the picture so that Satyanayana god will bless all my ikolam members(friends) and their family members.
HAPPY AND PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR TO ALL THE MEMBERS.
This is the snap of the laxmi pooja I had done for Diwali evening!
This is a shelf/cupboard especially designed by my husband, to keep God. Top part is a shelf and bottom a cupboard to keep all God and puja related things, although I do not do any elaborate puja or that sort.
The Varamahalakshmi Pooja and celebration, since it was on a work day me and my sister could get only few hours break from work, hence had to use her embroidered rangoli
