atha¦ naiv£dya¯ (Perform the full naivedyam process )

First dip a flower petal in the silver panchapatram and sprinkle on the ground to purify
the ground where you are going to place the neivedhyam. Then take a spoon of water
with your left hand from the silver panchapatram. Use your right ring finer to dip in the
spoon of water and draw a square.

Write Shree within the square in the language that you know. This will energize the
square.

Keep the vessel containing neivedhyam on the square. Open the closed lid. Offer petals
on the neivedhyam.

Now offer pancha neivedhya mudras to purify it.
