You start in the same manner as you left the Lord at the end of the previous Mansi Pooja.

  • Pray to Him to accept thaar
  • Escort Him to His living room
  • Remove His clothing
  • Bathe & dry Him
  • Dress Him in light clothing
  • Seat the Lord on a golden and ornately decorated seat
  • Rinse out His lotus face
  • Offer Him a grand, lavish meal. Form each mouthful with your hands and gently place them in His divine mouth. Visualise His mouth as He chews the food. Follow the lump in His throat as it goes down. He gives you prasadi. Accept the prasadi with love and respect. Rinse out His mouth and offer mukhvaas or pan etc.
  • Take the Lord back to the sabha and seat Him on Shree Swaminarayan Gadi
  • Perform the Rajbhog aarti
  • Perform Sashtang-dandvat-pranams at His lotus feet and repeatedly offer your prayers to Him
  • Take the Lord to His room to rest
  • The Lord lays down on a luxurious bed to sleep
  • Remain in His service until the next Mansi Pooja
