Pooja Vidhi Mangala Gowri

During the Mangala Gowri Pooja, 16 items and cosmetics used by married ladies (suhagan) have special significance. Let's start with the samagri that is necessary for the ritual. You must adhere to particular rituals every Tuesday of Sawan in order to worship Goddess Gaura, and you must use the following objects, or samagri, to do so:

(1) After taking a bath, dress in clean, new clothes and get up early in the Brahma Muhurta.

(2) Place the altar and sit with your back to the East. Place the white cloth and nine miniature piles of rice on one half of the altar. Place the red fabric and 16 tiny piles of wheat on the other half.

(3) After creating a Swastika on the betel leaf, position the Ganesha idol over some rice that has been placed separately on the pedestal. Place some wheat on top of them and cover them in the same manner. A coconut should be placed on top of five betel leaves in the pot. Finally, set the wheat dough diya (lamp) on the altar and light the four 16-strand wicks.

(4) Before beginning any auspicious devotion, first worship Lord Ganesha, who should always be revered first. Offer Janeu (symbolic of garments) and roli-rice and vermilion. Respect the diya and the Kalash in a similar way. Then, worship the 16 piles of wheat as the sixteen incarnations of the Goddess and the nine heaps of rice as the Navagraha (nine planets).

(5) Create an idol of Goddess Gauri using the pure and holy clay on a tray. Now resolve the fast by reciting the following mantra with a pure heart filled with devotion:

(6) With the utmost devotion, place the idol on the altar and perform its Abhishek using Panchamrit, milk, and pure water. Finally, adorn the Goddess in the appropriate attire.

(7) After that, give her the 16 bouquets of flowers, garlands, fruits, leaves, wheat-based ladoos flavoured with cardamom, cloves, and Panchmeva, as well as betel leaves and betel nuts (5 types of dry fruits).

(8) After reading the entire Mangla Gauri vrat Katha (story), perform the aarti. Every Wednesday, when the fast is over, do the Gauri Visarjan in a lake, pond, or river with a sincere heart and lots of devotion.

9) Complete the fast with udyapan in accordance with your commitment or resolution. On the final Tuesday of your resolution period, perform the Havan with your complete family after performing the Mangala Gowri Pooja as previously indicated. After then, under the direction of an experienced priest, give bhojan (meal) to 16 married women while adhering to the correct rites.
