Swasti namaskara

Chant “(deśakālādikaṃ saṃkīrtya) mama upātta samasta duritakṣayadvārā śrīparameśvara prītyarthaṃ tadvārā mama sarvābhīṣṭasiddhyardhaṃ, lokakalyāṇārdhaṃ, viśvaśāṃtyarthaṃ ca prātassaṃdhyāmupāsiṣye” (देशकालादिकं संकीर्त्य) मम उपात्त समस्त दुरितक्षयद्वारा श्रीपरमेश्वर प्रीत्यर्थं तद्वारा मम सर्वाभीष्टसिद्ध्यर्धं, लोककल्याणार्धं, विश्वशांत्यर्थं च प्रातस्संध्यामुपासिष्ये and touch the water in the paṃcapātra with the right hand.

1. Put a flower in paṃcapātra.
2. Recite the words, “puṃḍarīkākṣāya nama: puṃḍarīkākṣāya nama: (पुंडरीकाक्षाय नमः पुंडरीकाक्षाय नमः), and
3. Sprinkle few drops of water on the head with the flower in the panchapatra two times.

By sprinkling water twice like this on the body, both internal and external sanctity prevail.

Chant “Śrī mahāgaṇādhipataye nama: śrīgurubhyonama: श्रीमहागणाधिपतयेनमः- श्रीगुरुभ्योनमः” and offer namaskāram to Lord Ganapati and guru.
