Question from Ruchi :

 

What does it mean to give life to a deity.

 

Swamiji's response :

 

The process of giving life to the deity is called Prana Pratishtha.

It means breathing your soul into the deity so that the deity

becomes a reflection of a living God or Goddess. It is performed

through a specific set of mantras and kriyas.

 

Question from Ruchi :

 

Is it true that negative effect is created when offerings are not

made.

 

Swamiji's response :

 

When we don't offer it means that we seek to horde for our own

selfish enjoyment. That creates a negative effect.
