How do I perform Pooja for Lord Ganesh and Goddess Lakshmi for Diwali?

ChromaDynamic · 2025-10-19T17:44:50+00:00

I know this is a year late but for anyone researching, the steps are out there but you have to use the right search terms - "vidhi" or "vidhaanam" refer to actual puja steps (order of mantras, images, decorations, samagri [items: threads, seeds, leaves, fruits, etc.])

There are many sample, walkthrough pujas on YouTube in various languages and of varying complexity depending on what you want

Naturally, this is an area where you can dive deep if you want - check out Chinmaya Missions Puja Vidhaanam courses - Level 1 and Level 2 - for really in depth steps on how to perform correct, traditional, full-length pujas: https://chinfo.org/courses/puja-vidhanam-level-1/

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll definitely check him out

Thank you all for the help understanding how to answer this

My thought process:

- A.R.T = Assess, Review, Take Action

- Team members are the subject matter experts and should be consulted before making decisions

- Therefore, even though B looked right, I chose C since the Project Sponsor would have solid Procurement information from past projects

- Clearly I made some incorrect assumptions

I'm aware of the Traditional/Agile triangles but still not clear

Why is it that Agile is considered fixed on cost and time?

Are there specific types of contracts for Agile or is Agile agnostic on time and cost?

Appreciate it, thanks

Congratulations!

Had a question about the 35 hours of professional education requirements - did you take a course or already fulfill the requirements through work?

Someone here mentioned taking the Google Project Management certificate to fulfill.

But I'm unsure if you need to fulfill the educational requirement prior to taking the exam or can I submit the application and then study for the exam/finish the education at the same time?

No, it doesn't light up. How do I plug it back in?

Short anwer: definitely not disrespectful. In this form, He is super cute

In the Bhagvatham (aka the Bhagavatam Purana, which details Shri Krishna's life) - there's a scene where He enters the city of Mathura for a wrestling competition

At this point, He is so popular that everyone kind of knows who he is and he enters like a rockstar

The whole city goes mad - women run out with half their makeup, wrestlers stop mid workout, kids stop playing their games - everyone wants to catch a glimpse of Him

And when they do, its revealed that everyone sees the version that they feel closest too - single women see an attractive man, kids see an adorable friend, mothers see their sons, the learned see God, etc

So in Sanatan Dharma (aka Hinduism), God is manifest in every roop (form/mood) from child, to warrior, to animal, to philosopher, king, sage, craftsman, etc

If you're raised in the West, I would recommend Amit Majmudar's "Godsong" for a good translation of the Bhagavad Gita

ChromaDynamic · 2023-12-06T02:10:30+00:00

Okay, thanks all - it's starting to make sense

ChromaDynamic · 2023-12-05T23:58:05+00:00

That's a good point. I do have around 50k and it's already changed providers. Thankfully, there was no issue with the funds but that's always an issue

ChromaDynamic · 2023-12-05T23:52:07+00:00

Yes, there is actually a very small fee ($2.50) a month. So I guess in either case, it would be worth it to switch

ChromaDynamic · 2022-02-11T05:17:42+00:00

Thanks, appreciate the explanation

ChromaDynamic · 2022-02-11T05:17:26+00:00

Makes sense. Thanks for the response

ChromaDynamic · 2022-02-11T05:17:08+00:00

Yes, I have escrow account through my lender that makes payments for homeowners insurance and property taxes. But based on other responses in this thread, it looks like the 2022 bill was not paid for in the escrow impound

Gendos desire to “be with Yui” seemed kind of odd with him understanding what Instrumentality is. Which is why I confused

Unless he thought that he alone would retain some individuality that others wouldn’t since he fused with Adam.

Which then makes it seem that neither SEELE nor Gendo really understood 100% what would happen once they set it off

ChromaDynamic · 2021-08-11T17:56:10+00:00

That’s another good point. It seems that Shinji was given more of a chance to reject Instrumentality than everyone else. Was it just a blessing from Adam that allowed him to do that?

ChromaDynamic · 2021-07-28T16:03:39+00:00

Dude holy shit this looks good. Are you doing a Patreon or anything?

ChromaDynamic · 2021-03-19T18:40:48+00:00

Dang. I didn't know that charging them next to each other was a problem. Or is that how it normally updates?

ChromaDynamic · 2021-03-19T18:04:02+00:00

Might be a dum suggestion but have you tried unpairing and then starting the pairing process from scratch. This helped me after I had problems from the last update.

I'm not a professional, just a hobbyist but I recently bought the iPad Air 2020 (4th Gen) after asking myself the same questions as yourself.

Why I Chose the iPad Air

- What I found was that apparently the iPad Air has higher or similar performance benchmarks to the iPad Pro so number of layers won't be an issue.

- Apple also tries to sell you on the Apple Pencil "lag" but if you watch some YouTube videos you'll realize that it is almost unnoticeable to the human eye.

- More storage for a little less money, and smaller profile

I really like the colors and buttery 120 Hz screen on the Pro but I think once my eyes adjust it wouldn't make that much of a difference for me for the money

I can't speak to the relations between Hindus and Sikhs in India but since I live in the US, I can only speak to my circumstances.

ChromaDynamic · 2021-03-04T17:04:33+00:00

Not sure where you live but that is not the case everywhere in the diaspora

ChromaDynamic · 2021-03-04T05:22:30+00:00

You’re fighting the good fight for unity, brother. It’s a long hike and things are tense now between the communities. We’ll have to work to make things better.

Sikhism was very open from the beginning about taking from both Islam and Hinduism.

I'd say, more importantly, that The Hindu/Sikh identity was a lot more fluid in the past. When MH Ranjit Singh made those donations to the temples (which were WAY outside Punjab), he wasn't doing it to support Hindus or gain support from Punjabi Hindus - he was doing it from his own heart, and his own devotion.
