If you are also building a temple in your house then follow these rules of Vastu

While making anything in the house, Vaastu should be kept in mind. Similarly, while building a temple inside the house, special attention should be paid to the directions. The rules for building a temple in the house are also mentioned in Vastu Shastra. In this, guidelines have also been given regarding worship, installing idols of Gods and Goddesses, offering Prasad etc. Let us know about them:

Direction and size of the idol of the deity:

The temple should be built in the east or north direction only. If a Shivalinga is kept in the house, it should not be bigger than the thumb. But if it is big then a separate temple should be built in a clean place outside the house. No idol in the place of worship should be more than 6 inches tall.

Tender

It is very important to offer food to any deity. Food should be consumed only after offering food to the gods. The quantity of prasad depends on the size of the idols. For small idols installed in our homes, the quantity of bhog offered is the same as a person eats in a regular meal.

Prayer:

One should not worship any god. Each deity should be worshiped in the prayer area as per their respective rituals. Tamasic and Satvik gods should not be kept together. For example, fierce deities like Bhairava, Pratyangira or Kali should not be placed with sattvik deities like Lord Rama or Lord Krishna.
