On the auspicious day appointed for hearing the sacred rites, beneath the proper constellation, the consecration of the image is to be performed. The ritual begins with the careful mixing of pañcagavya—the five sacred products of the cow—with fragrant substances and pure water, preparing a sanctified blend for the ceremony. With a focused mind, the worshipper recites the mantra: “You, the creator of all worlds, by whose grace the worlds exist—the cause of causes, fierce in energy, radiant, the Great Person—salutations, again and again.” Using this mantra, the devotee installs the image, employing four vessels and repeating the sacred words with devotion. Another mantra is then invoked: “Om. Having obtained Varuṇa, the ocean, and having been duly worshipped, the self becomes most pleased; Agni, Earth, and all the waters—because of whom all these always exist—I bow.” After bathing the image according to the prescribed method and remaining steadfast in the rites, offerings are made: aguru, incense infused with camphor, and saffron. Incense is presented as appropriate, followed by the offering of yellow cloth. The worshipper recites: “Always pleased with yellow cloth, when He is pleased, the world is pleased.” With this mantra, the cloth is offered properly, and, following the previously described procedure, a gift vessel is presented. Another invocation follows: “May there be peace for the gods, for Brahmins, warriors, and people. May the god Parjanya send rain, and may the earth be filled with crops.” Afterward, the devotees of Bhagavān are worshipped, and then the Brahmins are honored. The ritual continues with words spoken without error, and the formal dismissal is performed. The worshipper honors the participants with garments, ornaments, and decorations, ensuring proper reverence. Whoever worships the teacher with devotion, according to the prescribed rite, receives blessings; even a king, when pleased, grants a village’s worth with difficulty. In the same way, as proclaimed in the scriptures by auspicious command, whoever establishes the Lord by this procedure is blessed. During the worship, drops of water fall upon the Lord’s paths, signifying divine presence. Thus, the establishment of the clay image is described, concluding the chapter named “Establishment of Clay Worship” in the glorious Varaha Purana. Now begins the account of copper worship. Having fashioned a beautiful and radiant image from copper, the worshipper enters the dwelling and installs it facing north. Water mixed with all fragrances and the five sacred products of the cow is prepared. The mantra is recited: “He who is essence, you remain in copper as the eye.” By this mantra, the illustrious Lord is installed. When the night has passed and the sun has risen, Brahmins assemble and recite the Vedas. The worshipper takes water mixed with fragrant substances and invokes: “Om, he who is all-excellent, the lord, the power of illusion, chief among those endowed with yogic strength. O Lord, who are like fire and wind, purifier, illuminator, breath, and who exist by your own will, O Supreme Person, Om.” Then, approaching the doorway, the worshipper brings the image swiftly into the house. With incense, flowers, and lamps, the worshipper establishes the Lord, reciting the installation mantra: “Om, O Radiant One, Illuminator, Light of the world, embodiment of knowledge and bliss, Lord of the three worlds, come here, O Supreme Person, remain here and protect me.” Taking a white cloth, the mantra is recited: “Om, you are pure, the Self, the ancient Person, the essence in all worlds, Lord of the celestial realms.” The image is adorned with garments, and the devotee, steadfast in duty, proceeds to decorate the Lord with sandal, incense, and other offerings. Sweet food is presented as naivedya, and the peace invocation is recited: “May there be peace for the kings, for all the realms, and for the people.” Thus, the sacred procedures for both clay and copper worship are revealed, each step sanctified by mantra, offering, and reverence, ensuring the presence and blessings of the Supreme Person in the dwelling and in the hearts of the faithful.
