Annapurna puja vidhi and mantra

Annapurna puja vidhi  

Annapurna is the form of Divine Mother which grants us nourishment. All humans are compelled to seek some form of nourishment, whether it be material, such as food, money, or possessions, or whether it be spiritual, such as cultivating a connection with the Divine.Anna means food and grains, while the meaning of purna is full, complete, and perfect. Annapurna is the Goddess of Nourishment, She who is full, complete, and perfect with food and grains.

Benefits of Worship

When Mother Annapurna is worshiped, She blesses her children with nourishment beyond the gross material things we desire. She blesses us with the attainment of perfection in wisdom and renunciation.Before partaking of any meal, a devotee should offer Her food with this prayer: “Oh Annapurna, you are always full, complete, and perfect. You are the energy of the beloved Lord Shiva. For the attainment of perfection in wisdom and renunciation, please give me your nourishment.”The wisdom Mother gives is the understanding that “Giving” is the true spirituality. She teaches that renunciation will allow us to remain in equanimity in all of life’s circumstances
