All present start chanting "Lalitha Sahasranamam" either as shlokam or as Naamavalli. we normally do it as naamavalli. After this you can even chant some of our Devi Sthothrams and have a small Bhajanai etc (individual choices). Once this is over the deeparadhana takes place with all the lights off(only the light of the camphor and the lamps will be there).

- AADI POORAM KOLAM
The main vilakku is lit and the ganapathy pooja is done to the top right lamp. You really feel the divine power once the lamp is lit...
The pooja is started and except for the main vilakku all other lamps are lit and the prasadams, flowers etc are ready..
After all the alangaarams the lamp is placed at the centre of the kalam along with other lamps. This type of poojas vary and it is done in different ways. Some people do it with three lamps some with five ...We normally do it in this way by having five lamps surrounding the main lamp in which one becomes Ganapathy at the time of pooja.
As the main pooja is conducted on the lamp (which becomes the Goddess after Aavaahanam) is decorated with Pattu paavaadai and flowers and placed on the kalam. This lamp was bought from Chennai only for the purpose of this pooja which is almost 3ft tall.
As I was tempted after seeing Rajam's kolam, I made it on photo shop.And I dedicate this to Rajam, for her sincerity, enthusiasm for kolam and her color sense,,,,,, and for all her good qualities .
this is some of my trials of apartment kolam pls view and waiting for u r comment to improve my work
