I Have Deities!

On Wednesday I went to Bhagavad-Gita class at the temple. I hadn't been to the temple for a while and in their separation the girls decided to spoil me, and of course why wouldn't they?!So I came home with a basic Arati set (Brass tray, flower dish, ghee lamp, and a little pot to make the ghee wicks with.) and a huge bunch of flowers.This morning I went to the temple again for class, having been begged to the night before. I came home with a picture of my disciplic succession of gurus, a water dish, an altar cloth, some Tulsai leaves and Manjaris (Tulsai flowers)... Oh yes... And the deities of Sri Nishrmhadeva and Prolard Maharaja!!!When I got home I dusted the altar and set it up all nicely and installed the deities onto the altar. I fetched them some water with Tulsai, placed some flowers at their feet, and went into the kitchen. I cooked some dhal and rice and offered it in the pukka brahmin way. Then when it got dark I laid out their bed on the altar and took off their ornaments and said the mantras to lay them to rest.I'm loving it. I adore Puja!Tomorrow I'm getting up early, waking, dressing and then offering mangala arati to them.Eeee!
