UPACHAARAAS

 
Now we are ready to invoke Rama and offer Upachaaraas (reception with reverence). With folded hands focus on the picture of the deity as you chant the following:

Om Sree Seeta Lakshmana Bharata Shatruggna Hanumatsameta Sri Ramachandra Parabramhane Namaha

I offer my salutations to the Supreme Being Sree Ramachandra in the company of Sita, Lakshmana, Bharata, Shatruggna and Hanumaan

Now offer a few grains of akshata with your right hand such that the grains fall on the picture gently as you chant:

Om Sree Seeta Lakshmana Bharata Shatruggna Hanumatsameta SriRaamachandra Parabramhane Namaha

aavaahanam samarpayaami

I offer an invocation to you

Offer akshata as before such that the grains fall on the altar as you chant:

Om Sree Seeta Lakshmana Bharata Shatruggna Hanumatsameta SriRaamachandra Parabramhane Namaha

aasanam samarpayaami

I offer a seat for you
