108 Kalashas with holy
Ganges water,
to be offered to Lord Mahakala-Bhairava |
On 26th May 2010, the
auspicious day of Narasimha Jayanti, a grand and special Puja was
conducted by the Priests of Omkarananda Ashram Himalayas, under
the guidance of the Chief Priest of Omkarananda-Kamakshi-Devi
Mandir, Shri Suresh Shastriji.
All the Priests had taken much extra time
and great effort to decorate the Mandap of Mahakala-Bhairava
Mandir with a special Altar and different Puja-Materials, and they
also established a beautiful Swarna-Akarshana Bhairava Mandala,
with 108 Kalashas (earthen pots), filled with holy Ganges-water
and flower-petals and ornamented with lightful Deepas. This
special Mandala was later on charged by the Omkarananda Ashram
Priests with high-class, powerful prayers.
The Puja started in the morning with
Ganesha-Puja, Guru-Puja and Yogeshwar and Yogeshwari Puja.
After the special Puja for the beautiful
Mandala, an elaborate Abhishekam was performed for the
Pranapratishtha Murti of Lord Mahakala-Bhairava, inside the
Shrine.
The hour-long Puja ended with a special
Arati and Prasad-Distribution.
