Babaji,Shantnuji Sudhakarji,Thimmappaji,and All sadhaks ,

I know my father used to offer food  cooked for lunch as NIVEDAN to family

deity  before we ate it.

But I have not seen him offering cooked dinner as NIVEDAN.

I have seen one American family related to  us offering dinner as NIVEDAN  .

Is this done only to impress me or any other family does it ?

Please clarify

yours devotedly

SwamiJi,

Pranam.

 

Yes, here at our place i know lot of families including mine, offer

cooked food ( a Full Meal like that of Lunch ) on FULL MOON day to

the moon and deity as Nivedan and then we take our dinner ( a full

meal ).

Also the same is done on Thiruvathirai Nakshatra day as well (

Mangalya day - the day all married women pray god for their husbands

welfare ), the entire family fasts / eat something fresh in little

during day time, and at night a full meal cooked is offered as

nivedan, worshiped and the whole family has their dinner.

 

Luv.

Dear Swamiji,

 

Namaste!

 

As far as i know both during day as well as at night, cooked

food is offered as NIVEDYAM, specially on full moon days.

It is said on full moon days healing rays of the moon influences

all the food particles, to bestow good health. Further once in

a year i.e. on SHARAD POORNIMA we offer cooked food but mainly

DOODHPAK enriched with almonds, raisins, saffron, etc., is kept

exposed to the moon for atleast 3 hours. It is said, this one

act, acts like an insurance for the whole year in enjoying good

health.

The custom could get improvised depending upon where you reside

and also what the local priest prescribes?

 

 

With warm wishes,

 

Sudhakar

HARI OM TAT SAT! Cheers! :o)

Dear Swamiji,

 

In addition on every Shivaratri Day, food is offered to God till late

in the night.

 

Pranamams,
