    What is said during dhoop puja

    12 months ago 152

    Dhoop (incense) is offered in Jain puja as part of the basic offerings to the Tirthankaras and the sages. The purpose is to purify the surroundings and to symbolize the fragrance of virtuous conduct spreading through the mind and environment.

    What is typically done:

    • A clean altar is prepared and a small lamp is lit.
    • Dhoop incense is lit and placed as an offering to the Tirthankaras and all pure beings.
    • This is usually followed by recitation of the Namokar Mantra (or other customary prayers) and other simple offerings such as water, flowers, and fruit, depending on the local tradition.
    • The sequence and exact wording can differ between Digambar and Shwetambar communities, but the essence remains the same: to honor the Tirthankaras, purify the space, and invoke auspiciousness.

    If you want the exact Sanskrit phrases or a detailed sequence for your specific tradition (Digambar or Shwetambar), I can provide that precise text for you.
