Namaste,
I am just curious to know if you do Satyanarayana Pooja at home on each Pournami.
In my household, we have been doing that for a very long time.
What we do is very, very simple though. I prepare Rava kesari, clean the puja spot, draw kolam, adorn the Satyanarayana picture with fresh coat of sandal and kumkum, place flower.
Then me and my hubby take head-bath late in the evening, and first read the Katha (5 stories), then offer the naivedyam of kesari and bananas, then I read Satyanarayana Ashtottara and offer flowers after each nama (108 namas). With that we finish the puja and then offer karpooram.
Overall, it takes just an hour for the above.
Offlate, I have come into contact with people who do it very elaborate every month, including fasting the whole day, and a full-fledged puja that includes ganesh puja, ashtadik-palaka puja and so forth...
So upon the above, I became curious to know if there are other simpler steps that I can incorporate into my puja. If you do this puja, can you let me know how you do it?
