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
