This ritual, a magnified version of the daily invocation (腻惫腻丑补苍补), essentially consists of the filling of pots with water and other materials, sanctifying them with mantras of the cosmic principles (tattvas) and pouring their contents over the idol. Brahma办补濒补艣补 indicates, at the same time, the ritual that may involve up to 1,000 pots, including the main pot (办补濒补艣补), which is brought to the 艣谤墨办艒惫颈濒 in royal procession, since it represents the main deity of the temple. All the stages of this ritual are supported by music.
The history of India traces the identification of countries, villages, towns and other regions of India, as well as mythology, zoology, royal dynasties, rulers, tribes, local festivities and traditions and regional languages. Ancient India enjoyed religious freedom and encourages the path of Dharma, a concept common to Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism.
