The holy festival of Navratri has started. The devotees of Maa Durga must have completed all their preparations by now, from setting up the Kalash to preparing Maa’s favorite offering to please the Goddess. But many times, due to not knowing the rules of Navratri puja properly, the seeker is not able to get the full results of his puja. A similar rule has also been given regarding quince while setting up the Kalash. Which many people still keep incorrectly in worship. People often remain confused about whether to keep the quince on the Kalash with its face straight or lying down. In such a situation, so that you get the full results of your puja, let us know how coconut is kept on the Kalash and what are the rules related to it.
Why is coconut kept on the urn
The installation of Kalash and coconut in the temple during Navratri puja is considered a symbol of invocation of Lord Ganesha and Goddess Durga. Which provides success and peace to the seeker in every task. It is believed that Brahma, Vishnu and Lord Shiva reside in coconut. In such a situation, the main purpose of placing coconut on the Kalash is to invoke the Gods, so that the Navratri puja can be completed smoothly. The coconut should be wrapped in a red cloth and placed on top of the Kalash.
How should a coconut be placed on the Kalash, straight or lying down?
The side of the tree to which the coconut is attached is considered its face. But while worshiping, many people turn the pointed part of the coconut upwards, which is wrong. As a rule, the establishment of a standing coconut is never considered auspicious. The logic behind this is that the coconut facing down increases the number of enemies. Diseases increase by keeping the coconut face upwards. Facing east leads to destruction of wealth. Therefore, the coconut should always be facing towards you and the Kalash should be placed on the right side of Mata Rani.
