Daily Practice
Begin at Brahma Muhurta
The hours before sunrise are considered most auspicious for prayer, meditation and aarti.
Light a diya
Offering light symbolises dispelling darkness and ignorance. Face east or north while praying.
Sit with a still mind
A few minutes of japa or silent breath before darshan helps settle the mind into bhakti.
Offer with gratitude
Bhakti is not transactional. Offer flowers, water or simply a grateful heart.
