Offering Bhog Samagri to the 45 Devtas and 4 Guardians in Vastu Poojan

How to do it

  1. 1Invite the 45 devtas with pushpanjali to come and sit in the house
  2. 2Request them to accept the offering
  3. 3Start with Indra (E4), chanting its mantra ending in swaha
  4. 4While saying swaha, place its bhog samagri on a leaf or paan leaf and offer it in its marked area
  5. 5Spread the fragrance of that devta there while offering
  6. 6Continue in order: Agni, Yama, Nairiti, Varun, Vayu, Kuber, Ishan and onward through all 45
  7. 7Finally offer to the 4 guardian devtas around the 45
  8. 8Keep the instruments sounding while the mantras are chanted

Cautions

  • Without invitation and request the devtas do not accept the offering, just as a guest does not open a box of sweets until told to

Explanation and notes

There are 45 devtas, but 4 more stand on the four sides to protect them, so basically there are 49, and they also receive offerings. Each devta has its own fragrance because it comes quickly when that fragrance spreads, as a rat comes quickly to a cage holding a desi ghee dish and snakes wrap around a sandalwood tree. The offering mantra follows the pattern Om [devta name] ... Vastu ... Swaha; exact words: refer to the class recording.

Jayant Devta (E3, 61.875 to 73.125 Degrees): Profile, Samagri and Remedies

Jayant, the third devta of the East (pad E3, in the outer paishachik ring), is the success-maker who completes any work by any means (saam, daam, dand, bhed) while following dharma, and converts knowledge into wealth. Its door is called the vipul sampada (abundant wealth) door because the grace of the Moon on this pad is very strong.

Mahendra (Indra), the fourth devta of the East, is the king, sustainer and administrator who brings the energy of the planets, Sun, Moon and 27 nakshatras to earth and spreads it evenly through the house. It gives control over the mind and senses, right decisions, government support, contacts, name and fame.

Satya, the sixth devta of the East, is the son of Dharma and stands for truth, goodwill and justice; like a village panchayat whose members speak the truth, it gives fair decisions. Balanced, it makes a person a good judge and advisor; imbalanced, lies spread through the house and honour is lost.

Bhrisha Devta (E7, 106.875 to 118.125 Degrees): Profile, Samagri and Remedies

Bhrisha, the seventh devta of the East, is weighty and powerful with its own gravity; balanced, it awakens the nerves of the brain and raises thinking power, observation and one-pointed concentration, like a bird gazing fixedly at one point. Imbalanced, the mind gets confused, the nature turns dominating and kidney problems appear.
