Pushpanjali mantra
🌺
Read along with the priest in Bengali, Devanagari or English letters, with the meaning underneath. Works offline once opened, so it's ready in a crowded pandal.
How anjali is offered
- Bathe and wear clean or new clothes. Many people fast until anjali.
- Take flowers and bel leaves from the committee volunteers and hold them in your joined palms.
- Repeat each line after the priest. At “Esha sachandana…”, offer the flowers towards the Goddess's feet.
- This is done three times, then the pranam mantra with folded hands.
Mantras and order vary between families and pujas. Always follow your priest; this page helps you read along.
