About service to the Deities

About the Deities, installation is another thing. You should not install Them because if you do that then you are obliged to a certain standard and timings.
But I am sure you didnโ€™t mean that.

There are many details, like cleanliness of the altar and of your person when you offer something. We can talk more when I come back.
For the time being you take a sankalpa, which is a pledge of a minimum offering, which can be increased in the future.
Keep it very simple because if you can do more is good but if you canโ€™t itโ€™s not good at all. Like for instance pledge everyday an incense and a cup of water and change their clothing once a week. Something like that.
Of course you should offer bhoga on the altar so that becomes prasadam. My picture should be smaller that Srila Prabhupadaโ€™s murti and that should be on the right side of him.
If you go traveling you can do the offerings in meditation.

Your well-wisher
