What is the importance of ‘offering a sari’ in a ritualistic - TopicsExpress

What is the importance of ‘offering a sari’ in a ritualistic worship of a Goddess ? Note: Ritual of ‘offering a sārī and a blouse-piece’ is called as ‘Otī bharane’. Invariably offering Her a sari and a blouse-piece concludes the ritualistic worship of a Goddess. Offering this to a Goddess is akin to praying to Her attributeless form to work for one’s spiritual progress and welfare through the medium of ‘with attribute’ form. Panchopachārpūjā (worship by 5 characteristic sub-rituals) in any ritualistic worship is related to the attributeless form of God. The prayer to the Goddess to become functional, with the offering of a sari and a blouse piece helps the attributeless form of the Goddess to manifest in ‘with attribute’ form in the sari and the blouse-piece. The correct method of Oti bharane while worshipping a Goddess : A. The sari offered to the Goddess should preferably be made of cotton or silk fabric, because when compared to other fabrics, these fabrics have a better capacity to attract and retain the sattvik frequencies emanating from the Goddess. B. Stand in front of the Goddess holding the sari with open palms, at chest level; place the blouse-piece on top of the sari and then a coconut and some rice grains over the blouse piece. The tuft at one end of the coconut should be towards the Goddess. C. Pray with utmost bhav (spiritual emotion) to the Goddess to bless you with Chaitanya and for your spiritual progress. This helps manifest the ‘with attribute’ Goddess principle. D. After offering all the ingredients of ‘Oti’ at the feet of the Goddess, offer some rice grains on them. E. If possible, the lady offering the ‘Oti’ (only a married lady is permitted to offer an ‘Oti’ to a Goddess) should wear the sari offered to the Goddess as prasad (Holy sacrament) and partake of the coconut too as prasad.
