Guest guest Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 We worship god through various rituals. If we deeply think, all these rituals become null and void due to the following reasons: God is in microcosm as well as in macrocosm. We worship god through an idol. Again we worship him through materials collected like water, flower, fruits etc. All these are gifts of god to humanity. We offer the same gifts to god. Hence, nothing is our own. Adhisankara prayed and appealed to god: "You are the vast" How i can offer ritual bath to you who is vast, Virata swarupa. I offer you teaspoon full of water. Can it quench the thirst of God who is Virata swarupa. Can i cover you with a cubit of dress when the entire sky is not enough to cover you? Like this Adhisankara prays and requests god to pardon him. Swami too reciprocates the same truth.He says, "Offer me something which is pure and unsullied. Do not offer something which is already tarnished by your desires etc.He has given us Heart which is spiritual. We have to offer the same heart in the same condition as He gave us.
