A Short Guide
Choosing from our Pooja Room
Setting up or refreshing a pooja room? This collection covers the essentials: deity idols in brass and antique-ivory finish (Ganesha, Lakshmi, Hanuman, Shiva, Ram Darbar), diyas for the daily aarti, wall hangings like the Ganesha bell toran for the mandir entrance, and urli bowls for flowers.
Placement basics per vastu: the mandir belongs in the north-east of the home, idols face west or east so you face east or west while praying, and brass is preferred for daily-worship murtis because it withstands abhishek and cleaning. Sizes run from 2.5-inch pocket idols to 8-inch statement murtis.

Frequently asked questions
Where should the pooja room be located per vastu?
North-east of the home is the classic zone. Place idols so they face west or east — meaning you face east or west while praying — elevated and never on the bare floor.
Which material is best for daily-worship idols?
Brass — it withstands abhishek, tilak, sindoor and regular cleaning without wearing. Painted and antique finishes are best for display idols that receive dry worship only.
What are the essentials for a new pooja room?
A primary deity idol, a diya for daily aarti, a toran or bell hanging for the entrance, and an urli for fresh flowers — the four pieces nearly every home mandir uses daily.
