By performing these sacred acts the worshiper creates a relationship with the divine through his or her emotions and senses. </span></span></span></p><p></p><p style="text-align: left"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"><span style="font-size: 10px"><span style="color: #000000">During a household puja, the head of the household chants prayers to the god or goddess. The worshipers offer the deity a seat, wash its feet, and give it water. An image may be symbolically bathed, clothed in new garments, and embellished with ornaments. Perfumes and ointments may be applied, and flowers and garlands may be placed before it. Incense is burned, and a lighted lamp is waved in front of the deity. Foods such as cooked rice, fruit, butter, and sugar are offered. Family members bow before the image, sip the water they have given the god, and receive a portion of cooked food. The food and water are now considered to have been blessed by the deity for the devotees.</span></span></span></p><p></p><p style="text-align: left"><span style="font-size: 10px"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"><span style="color: #000000">Hindus worship to the idol consist of bowing down to the idol.

[QUOTE="Archived_Member4, post: 90110, member: 6184"] Randip Singh ji, to understand the shabad that Pk70 presented to us, in this thread, is to understand what Hindus do to worship the idol. What does there worship consist of and here it is: [LEFT][B][FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2][COLOR=#844a15]How is puja celebrated? [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/B][FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2][COLOR=#000000]Wherever puja is performed it includes three important components: the seeing of the deity; puja, or worship, which includes offering flowers, fruits, and foods; and retrieving the blessed food and consuming it. By performing these sacred acts the worshiper creates a relationship with the divine through his or her emotions and senses. [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/LEFT] [LEFT][FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2][COLOR=#000000]During a household puja, the head of the household chants prayers to the god or goddess. The worshipers offer the deity a seat, wash its feet, and give it water. An image may be symbolically bathed, clothed in new garments, and embellished with ornaments. Perfumes and ointments may be applied, and flowers and garlands may be placed before it. Incense is burned, and a lighted lamp is waved in front of the deity. Foods such as cooked rice, fruit, butter, and sugar are offered. Family members bow before the image, sip the water they have given the god, and receive a portion of cooked food. The food and water are now considered to have been blessed by the deity for the devotees.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/LEFT] [LEFT][SIZE=2][FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#000000]Hindus worship to the idol consist of bowing down to the idol. To this worship this is what Guru Nanak Dev ji said.[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/LEFT] [LEFT][SIZE=2][FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#000000][B][FONT=Tahoma]Mėhlā 1.[/FONT] [/B][/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][FONT=Verdana] [B][SIZE=2][COLOR=#000000][COLOR=navy][FONT=Tahoma]First Mehl:[/FONT][/COLOR] [/COLOR][/SIZE][/B][COLOR=#000000][/COLOR][/FONT][/LEFT][FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#000000] [LEFT][B][SIZE=2][COLOR=maroon][FONT=AnmolUniPr][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%B9%E0%A8%BF%E0%A9%B0%E0%A8%A6%E0%A9%82"][FONT=Raavi]ਹਿੰਦੂ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%AE%E0%A9%82%E0%A8%B2%E0%A9%87"][FONT=Raavi]ਮੂਲੇ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%AD%E0%A9%82%E0%A8%B2%E0%A9%87"][FONT=Raavi]ਭੂਲੇ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%85%E0%A8%96%E0%A9%81%E0%A8%9F%E0%A9%80"][FONT=Raavi]ਅਖੁਟੀ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%9C%E0%A8%BE%E0%A8%82%E0%A8%B9%E0%A9%80"][FONT=Raavi]ਜਾਂਹੀ[/FONT] [/URL][/FONT][/COLOR][COLOR=maroon][FONT=Mangal]॥[/FONT][/COLOR] [/SIZE][/B] [B][SIZE=2][FONT=Tahoma]Hinḏū mūle bẖūle akẖutī jāʼnhī.[/FONT] [/SIZE][/B] [B][SIZE=2][COLOR=navy][FONT=Tahoma]The Hindus have forgotten the Primal Lord;
