Guest guest Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 Jai Maa! Jai Sri Ramakrishna! Radhe Radhe! I recently purchased a nice resin statues of Sri Radha Krishna, Durga Maa and Ganesha from krishnaculture.com I have set them up on my shrine and they provides a very nice focal point for my meditation. I have been wanting to do a more formalized worship, and I would very much like to offer clothes to dress them in. The murthis are strangely shaped, the Ganesha murthi has a back to it and the murthi of Radha Krishna is one piece. It seems like it will be difficult to dress them. I have searched online and haven't been able to find many resources for deity clothing and so I am wondering if anybody might be able to help provide ideas and resources as to how I can dress them. I want to keep my worship simple. I don't plan to bathe and dress the deities new every day, just occasionally. Thanks for your suggestions. Jai Maa!
