PLACE
OF RITUALS, TEMPLES AND FESTIVALS IN HINDUISM |

| Out of these, a few
are obligatory and the rest are optional. Practice
of meditation at sunrise, noon and sunset with the repetition of the
famous Gayatri Mantra, worship of God through symbols and images,
offering oblations into specially consecrated sacrificial fires
these were some of the rituals obligatory on almost all the Hindus
during the ancient days.
Even to this day, these have been
kept up though in a modified form, and with lesser intensity. A
wisely planned and solemnly conducted ritual prepares the ground,
creates the atmosphere, suggests the mood and predisposes the mind
so that the spiritual aspirant may easily detach himself from the
world and feel the mysterious presence of the Supreme
Power called God . |
