Archana-Paddhati
The Perfection of Deity Worship

by Gaur Kesava dasa

“ My dear Lord, You are not a statue. You are directly the son of Nanda Maharaja.” –from the story of Shakshi Gopal

Worship in many Hindu traditions is particularly elaborate. Devotees believe their temple and home images to be actual manifestations of the Lord and hence deserving of the most careful, lavish, and loving attention.

Based on Rupa Goswami’s Hari-bhakti-vilasa, this devotional guide provides numerous mantras and instructions that can be used to augment your daily puja. This book includes English transliterations with diacritics for proper pronunciation of the Sanskrit mantras.
