Often when we go to a temple, the priest also gives us some puja flowers along with the prasad. Flowers are always given to you after offering them at the feet of God, so that you get the blessings of God.
When we put these flowers on our forehead and keep them in a pure place in the house, they always leave a positive impact. Many times, after these flowers dry up, we take them out of the house and throw them in a garbage place.
However, doing so is wrong because according to astrology, these flowers spread good energy in the house and when we throw them in the garbage, it has a negative impact on life and it is like insulting God. Let us know from Jyotishcharya Pandit Ramesh Bhojraj Dwivedi what you should do with the flowers brought from the temple to get auspicious results.
Keep the flowers brought from the temple in the safe
It is believed that if you keep the flowers brought from the temple in your house safe, then there is a possibility of financial gain. Dry these flowers well, wrap them in a paper and keep them in the safe or any place where money is kept.
Due to which Maa Lakshmi arrives in your house and she helps in increasing your wealth with the blessings of God. Flowers are always seen as an auspicious sign and when they are mixed in the prasad, they are considered even more auspicious and indicate wealth. For this reason, it is advisable to keep these flowers in the safe of the house.
Immerse temple flowers in holy water
If you are not taking the temple prasad flowers home, then they should be immersed in a holy river or water source instead of throwing them here and there or in the trash. It is believed that if you immerse the flowers in a water source like a river, then it does not anger the God.
When you dip these flowers in water with your hands it is called 'Pushpanjali'. Offering flowers is considered an auspicious act and brings positive energy to the body.
It is believed that flowers are used as offerings to the gods during puja, thereby receiving their blessings and grace. When these flowers are immersed in the sea or river water for ritual purposes, it is a devotional act to please the Lord.
Compost made from temple flowers
It is believed that if you reverently bring flowers home as prasad from the temple and bury them in a pot at home or in the garden soil, they turn into manure in a few days.
You can use this fertilizer to increase the fertility of any plant. In religious traditions, offered flowers are collected and composted to enrich the soil, promote fertility and abundance in agricultural endeavors.
This eco-friendly approach not only promotes the purity of nature but also promotes harmony. According to astrology, flower manure offered to God is believed to symbolize the transformative power of Saturn and its use in the home garden brings the blessings of Saturn.
Place temple flowers near the tree
Many times during the journey you get flowers or torans as prasad from the temple, which makes it difficult to keep them safe during the journey. You should place those flowers on the palm of your right hand and put them on your forehead to spread positive energy throughout the body.
After this, keep these flowers near a Pipa or Banyan tree. Do not keep these flowers near a tree around which garbage is accumulated. In this way, you will get the blessings of God in the form of flowers and will also get the full fruit of the puja.
If you use temple flowers in this way, you get the blessings of God and also get the fruits of worship.
