॥ नैवेद्यम् ॥ naivedyam ॥
The next offering is naivedyam – the offering of sacred food to Sri Nithyanandeshwari-Adishakti and THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM.
Please clap your right hand index finger and middle finger on the left hand palm while you chant the following mantra: ॐ हः अस्त्राय फट् । auṁ haḥ astrāya phaṭ ।
Now sprinkle some water on the naivedyam paatram ringing the bell and chant the mantra:
ॐ हाम् हृदयाय नमः । auṁ hām hṛdayāya namaḥ।
Now take a uddharani of water and hover it clockwise over the Naivedyam. Please chant the mantra and sound the bell as you do so.
ॐ हां हौ शं िवाय नमः॥ auṁ hāṃ hauṃ śivāya namaḥ ॥ श्री नित्यानन्देश्वरी आदिशक्ति समेत श्री नित्यानन्देश्वर-सदाशिवाय नैवेद्यं निवेदयामि ॥ śrī nityānandeśvarī ādiśakti sameta śrī nityānandeśvara-sadāśivāya naivedyaṃ nivedayāmi ॥
Now please offer the water in the uddharani in front of the linga.
नैवेद्यानन्तरम आचमनीयम् समर्पयामि | ॐ हाम् शिवाय स्वधा ॥ naivedyānantaram ācamanīyam samarpayāmi | auṁ hām śivāya svadhā ॥
