This is the sankalpa. Next day early morning keep the same thoughts of worshipping the Lord
and take a head-bath (if possible an oil-bath). Have some soothing Indian Music (Shehnai or
sa.ntuur or sitaar or naadasvaram - preferably any instrumental) going on in the background
till the puujaa begins. The music should be pleasing (not too loud) for creating a serene mood.
(Of course people should be internally peaceful also!)
Wash Kalasha and fill it with clean water upto 3/4 of it. Cover and place it near the altar.
Observe Fast (if possible). Decorate the front door, altar and the place near the altar.
Invite your relatives, friends (who have bhakti in the Lord). Keep all the things for puujaa
ready, near the altar.
