Linda and all about puja

[Guest guest]

Namaste Linda and all:If I understand the question you asked Devi, I

would offer an answer.

You don't break the Durga puja for beginners into parts. Preferably,

you do the entire puja, in the morning, takes about 20 minutes, then

do aarti, 5 - 7 minutes.

At mid day, do aarti again. Then again in 6 PM. This is the schedule

done at the Devi Mandir.

Since Durga puja is so short, there is no place to cut it into

segments to do throughout the day.

 

Once you get comfortable with the entire puja, then you may feel to

add onto it. For example, add the Devi Kavach from the Chandi Path.

Read the post I made Monday night and it discusses how pujas are

modular and you can make it your own by adding sections that call out

to you.

 

If you do not wish to do the entire Duga puja, then just chant her

mantra 108 times in the morning and meditate upon Her. Or, just read

the puja in English and flow into Her presence. Anything that works

for you is fine. This is your relationship with Her, so ask Her what

she wants, and ask yourSelf what you wish to convey, and She will

speak to you in your heart.

 

Jai Maa Jai Swami
