Puja- born out of fullness. Beautiful. Could also be expanded to 'PUra hoJA'. Become whole. The Lord is whole.We are part and parcels of the Lord. We are also potentially whole. But in this state of illusion we are veiled from the truth. Puja then would be a request/prayer to God to shower His grace on us and make us whole again. Great article, Sanjeeb.

But actually we every time while doing puja open our desires list; may be for us or for our close ones. Truly speaking puja as said in shastras is performing a self benign respect towards the supreme. When we fold our hands & bow to the supreme, we pass on all our energy to Him & than in return we get it back unfathomed times. But its only possible with just one thought & that of getting CONTENTED. When this thought in particular occupies our heart, than the congregation is apps subtle and God greets us with all the required. This is where in ancient times people use to perform puja & get the man-bhaavan fal.

Aarthi is removing the darkness or ignorance within us and raise up like the light..ever glowing and shining. Gratitude and offering for whatever God has given you in nature in the form of flowers/fruits/water etc. Thanks Sanjib,

Puja therefore is symbollically an acknowledgement. No ritual... if in conformation with the scriptures... therefore is without meaning.
