What is Home Temple (Mandir) Pran Pratishtha?
Home Temple Pran Pratishtha installs the deities in a new puja room or mandir — the idols are purified, invoked with mantras and worshipped for the first time — so that the family’s daily puja begins on the right footing.
Pran pratishtha means “establishing the life breath”: through mantras, the deity is invoked into the idol, which is then treated as the living presence of God in the home. New idols are first purified (with panchagavya and abhishekam) before the invocation.
