My friend asked me this question and I did not know what to answer, so I am asking the elders in this forum.

----------

My friend and her husband are Tamil Brahmins but do not have any religious or spiritual beliefs. Last year her mother-in-law passed away. She was the one who did the poojas, lit lamps and maintained the pooja room cupboard. Now it has been a year and they are not using it anymore.

So they want to convert it to a cupboard that they can use.

She wants to put all the photos, saligramam and everything else in a box and keep it on the loft.

Someone suggested keeping all of this in a perumal temple.

Is that correct? What should she do? Need your guidance on this.

 

[Lotusinsanskrit]

Photoes can be distributed among dear ones if it all someone needed or it can be kept in temples. But for salagramam it can be given to the relatives(pankalis) who are worshipping salagramam in their houses to add this one too. Or you can consult acharyas to what to do because salagramam should be worshiped daily by doing abishekam and naivedhyam.
