Directions For Using Muruga Statue
- Place the Muruga statue on a sacred altar or a prayer room facing north or east.
- You can perform Abishekam (hydration ceremony) to the statue with rose water or milk according to your personal practice- daily, weekly, or monthly. After Abishekam, rinse the statue with water and wipe it dry.
- You can put round dots of sandalwood paste at the four corners of the base and on the forehead of the deity.
- Light a candle or ghee lamp and an incense stick in front of the statue. You can offer fresh or dry fruits, as Prasad, as well.
- You can offer Oleander or any red flowers and fresh or dry fruits, as Prasad, as well.
- Sit before the statue in meditation or offer red flowers along with your prayers by chanting "Om Saravana Bava" 108 times on Tuesdays, 6th Moon days, or daily during Mars Hora.
Please Note: The color of the statue may change over a period, especially with regular Abishekam (hydration ceremony); however, this does not dilute the power of the energized statue.
