Panchopachara pooja



Panchopachara pooja
------------------------------
We need not confuse panchabhoothas with panchopacharam.
.panchopacharam are
gandham
pushpam
dhoopam
Deepam
and
naivedyam..
Grantham chandanam represents touch
pushpam..represents archana with chanting..ears
dhoopam smell nose
Deepam.. light eyes
and
naivedyam tongue- taste..


Another view..
The five processes..
pavithreekaranam
aachamanam
shikhaa bandhanam
pranayamam
and
nyasam
Are considered panchopacharam

Another convention
Lam prithivyaatmane gandham samarpayami
Ham aakashatmane pushpam samarpayami
Yam vaayvaatmane dhoopam samarpayami
Ram vahnyaatmane Deepam samarpayami
Vam amritaatmane amrutham naivedayaami

Bhoomi - Prithvi -- chandanam

Aakaashsham pushpam

Vayu dhoopam

Vahni Agni Deepam

Amrutham..this can be treated as water and as nourishment ..naivedyam too.
Paaneeyam is also naivedyam.
