How can we worship Shri Krishna at home? Is it enough to install an idol, or are there other rituals that are mandatory?

4. Offer Dheepam ( one edible desi ghee oil lamp and one pure edible sesame oil lamp )

In my opinion , anyone can worship Shri Maha Vishnu ( Naaraayana ) and Shri Lakshmi Devi. To gatekeep and to prevent others from worship and bhakthi is nonsensical. Shri Maha Vishnu Naaraayana and Shri Lakshmi Devi are not so uptight as us humans. If you look carefully at the images and artwork of Shri Maha Vishnu , he embodies all opulences , beauty, grace and powers. He is also a flamboyant archtype . . not as rigid as what others made him out to be.

So worship away in happiness and gladness, learn how to do the simple panchoupachara puja.

Overthinking is killing me day-by-day. What should I do?

3. Offer Sugandham Dhoopam ( incense cone known as dhupa or incense stick known as agarbatti )

begin with the simple and basic 4 Regulative Principles set out by

1. no meat-eating (including onion, garlic, eggs, mushrooms, carrots?),

What was your wildest experience as a lesbian?

4. and no gambling (pretty obvious as this is additive forming)

Meditate and do japa and feel the immense blessings Shri Shri Maha Vishnu Naaraayana and Shri Lakshmi Devi brings forth. May Lord Shri Krishna and Shri Radhe blesses you.

Gandham samarpayami

Do you agree with Michael Moore that Donald Trump is "toast" in a political comeback?

1. Offer Gandham ( sandalwood paste to the picture of statue )

2. no illicit sex (only for serious marriage, procreation and love; not for one night stands),

the Gaudiya Vaishnavas or in general by all Vaishnavas ;

If gays can get married, why can't I marry my dog or a cheeseburger?

The most important thing here is faith , love and devotional service. Shri Krishna is not someone whose hell bent on my way or the highway or an extremely strict disciplinary master or a psychopath. In whatever mood and approach one does, he or she or they will come to me thus Shri Krishna does not care about our measly offerings and stinking bodies even if we shower a billion times in the Ganges River. What wins him over is your faith, love and devotional service. And also with how you treat others.. if you see that Shri Krishna is in all beings , then love flows naturally and you will feel naturally blessed.

Pushpham samarpayami

This is just my own opinion.

If you were to bet, will Canada bend over to Trump's America demands or remain inflexible until the last day of his Presidency on January 20, 2029? Will America or Canada win this geopolitical arm-wrestling? I'm rooting for America.

But. . . to be honest with you , a lot of Vaishnavas in India and South East Asia that I know personally , at home cooks with onion, garlic, carrots . . . so yeah . . . they only avoid eggs, meat, cigarettes, alcohol and illicit sex..

5. Offer Naivedhyam ( food and drink offerings )

Naivedhyam samarpayami

Is a narcissist capable of understanding the damage and the hurt that they have caused in your relationship?

Dhoopam samarpayami

But if you are serious about following a spiritual path and journey ;

Om Shri Krishnaya Namaha ,

How can I help my cat adjust to sleeping in its own room after allowing it to sleep with us as a kitten?

3. no intoxication (no tea, no coffee, no chocolates, no alcohol , no narcotics and no cigarettes),

2. Offer Pushpham ( fresh fragrant flowers such as jasmine and red roses )

Why would my ex block me after I blocked him?

Jai Hind, Jai Shri Raam , Jai Shri Krishna.
