Naivaidya

  • Naivaidya can be offered in three ways to the Lord.
  • one by offering directly before the idol , on  a mandala , sprinkling with gayatri and prana mantras.
  • secondly by offering a sumptous meal to Bramhins, athithi, and other dependents.
  • Thirdly by offering in a  fire of yagnya.
  • In the first case Lord accepts by casting his glance (through eyes)
  • In the second case through the mouth of Bramhins
  • thirdly though the flames ( Fire is thus known as Devmukha ,hutashan ,havyavahana etc)
  • One who Offers Naivaidya to Lord in all its forms attains agni loka and eventually moksha.
