Namaste
I just held my first puja.
It was very calming. I have a job interview and I am a little anxious, so I decided that today was a good day to put my money where my mouth is.
It wasn’t exactly what you’d call perfect. I only have a few pictures I printed. But I set up a small temple on a table. I went for a run, came back and had a shower. When I was clean I went to the temple space, bowed and greeted Ganapati. I then greeted and welcomed the Tridevi, each by name. I offered them water, incense and some food. I also got out the kumkuma I had made. We sat and I meditated on the day ahead without trying to impress my needs and wants on my guests.
My mantras at this stage are very very simplistic (Om Ganapataye Namaha), but it was all done with the upmost sincerity, which is a start.
Feels calm right now which is very welcome.
