FAQs
Devotion is expressed through respectful offerings; sacred ritual is both inner reverence and outer discipline.
The offering is part of the worship sequence at Cakratīrtha in Dvārakā.
Prepare arghya with pañcaratna and auspicious materials (flowers, akṣata, fragrances, fruits, gold, sandalwood) after praṇāma.
