Panchandiya
In Jainism, Panchandiya (also spelled as Pañcāṇḍiyā or Panchāṇḍiyā) refers to the five auspicious offerings or five essential items that are offered during Jain rituals, especially during the Puja (worship) of the Tirthankaras.
These five offerings are:
1. Pushpa (Flowers)
2. Phala (Fruits)
3. Naivedya (Sweets or food)
4. Chandana (Sandalwood paste)
5. Deepa (Lamp or light)
These are used as symbols of devotion and respect towards the Tirthankaras and are part of the traditional ritualistic worship in Jain temples. The practice signifies purity, detachment, and reverence, aligning with Jain principles of non-attachment and spiritual upliftment.
