    Thank you so much for this. I embraced Sanata Dharma about 5 years ago. Since then I have gone from one or two small Murties to quite an accumulation. I am trying to figure how to make it more organized and better reflect the essence of what it means. I love your statement at 1:32 if it isn't expensive it is too small and if it fits your needs it isn't good quality. That is exactly what I have found. I was wondering if it would be ok to construct something using shelving such as you have done and when I came across this I was very happy. I looked at shrines in stores and on line but that is not something one can purchase (IMHO) without knowing what you will eventually accumulate. For example the first one I looked at would have suited me then but would be way too small now. At any rate your presentation is extremely helpful. Thanks again

    Beautiful hack for setting up a pooja mandir.
    In 1998, a year after I converted to Hinduism, I set up pictures of Lord Ganesha, Lord Krishna, Lord Shiva and Mother Parvati, Lord Kartik with Mother Valli and Mother Devyani all which I cut out from different books and magazines on a TV table and used that as a puja mandir. Then in 1999, someone gave me a small shoe rack with white laminate finishing which I used as an altar for 21 years until last year. Now, I have my puja mandir set up on a two tier bookshelf with white laminate finishing.
    But these are not well set up for keeping pooja items. I will try this idea you suggested as since long, I wanted something on which I can have my religious photos on top and have my pooja books, cassettes and CDs, bell and kartals in a cupboard on the bottom.

      @skanthavelu 2 роки тому

      @@bowerspace2670 I am happy to have told you about my pooja mandir and how it evolved over the years!! 🙂🙂 Soon, I will get a spare shelf which I will add to my current pooja mandir. I will keep my main deities' photos on the upper levels, my bhajan and stotra CDs will go on the additional shelf once it is added and my bhajan books and chanting books along with my bell and kara taalam will be on the bottom.

    They must be missing you very much back in India. I've been wondering how they're all getting by without your organizing and systems!
    Although I don't understand, all your traditions just yet, I find I am interested in the meaning behind each celebration and homage. I am also very interested to see what changes you've made since being in the USA. Take care, 🙌🏻❤️ love your inspiration, Linda from Western Australia 🇦🇺

      Hi Priyanka. I have used the regular shelf liner. You could use anything that is easy to clean. I will update links based on many requests, in a day. Please do check it up. 😊🙏
