Guest guest Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 Question from Sadhvi : I have a question about puja (or altar) vaastu. Most texts will say to face East when you are doing puja but they will also say that the Deity should face East (which means we land up praying to the back of the deity ?!! ). Can you please clarify which is the correct direction that the deity should face and the correct direction the devotee should face? Swamiji's response : The deity faces from the East. We never want to turn our back on the deity. The same for the north. Especially in the worship of Shiva and Shakti, the temple can be organized so that the worshipper faces north and the deity faces the worshipper.
