PREFACE

 
We cannot sufficiently emphasize the powerful suggestion that is so easily and so often ignored. Krishna’s warning is that we should never engage in a puja ceremony or any other ritual if our heart and mind are not singularly devoted to it.

It should not be performed merely because it is the family tradition or it is the "right thing" to do or to satisfy someone else. The best reason is the most direct and simple reason and that is to surrender to God to seek His protection and pray for inner peace from the eternal conflicts that afflict humanity.

Let us simply resolve to pray to Him to grant us the wisdom to have faith in Him and with that faith seek His infinite grace so that we can live a dharmic life full of joy and freedom as we serve Him and the society at large.  With faith as foundation, we can begin to develop the practice of worshipping a God/Goddess of our choice. However we need to understand and follow a systematic procedure.
