Interesting Facts

• The puja is addressed to Krishna in his infant form, Bal Gopal, rather than to Krishna as king or teacher — the same form kept as Laddu Gopal in home shrines and rocked in a cradle at Janmashtami.
• Many households treat the Bal Gopal image as a child of the house: bathed, dressed, offered food and put to rest each day as part of the family routine.
• The mantra addresses Krishna as Devakisuta, the son of Devaki, invoking him through his own mother's name.
• The puja is traditionally taken up by the couple together, and the sankalp is spoken in both names.

Niyam — Observances

• Both partners should bathe early and wear clean clothes on each day of the ritual.
• Keep a sattvic diet for the full duration — no meat, eggs, alcohol, onion or garlic.
• Offer butter, milk or a milk sweet with tulsi at your altar during each session.
• Attend the sessions together where possible, and keep the household calm and free of arguments.
• Give food or clothing to children in need on the day of completion.
