GANAGAPUR - DATTATREYA |
|
|
| The devotee can
offer his services or seva to the Guru in several ways. The most common and popular
way,followed especially by those affected by some affliction is to stay at
Ganagapur, attend all sessions of worships and aratis and beg in the name of the
god-madhukari. For the convenience of others who cannot for any reason stay there,
themanagement has fixed certain types of worships and offerings that could be presented to
the god. On payment of the necessary rates they are performed by the pujaris on behalf of
the donor. Ordinary worship costs Rs. 2.25, abhisheka Rs. 7.25, naivedya ten rupees, while
the palanquin can be taken out for eighteen rupees. Laghurudra costs fifty one rupees. A
very popular mode is the payment of some money to the pujaris from which alms- madhukari
is distributed to those who stay there for seva. The minimum on this count should not be
less than fifteen rupees. Donations of other sorts are always welcome and presently at
least, contributions towards the renovation project are more so. |
