Easy- to- Care- for Deities

Keeping deities that are dressed and so on requires time. An alternative is a beautiful deity like this. Predressed and He even has a stock of butter if home cooked food offerings are limited. And He still can get a water bath, although the wooden base may not like that too often. A mental bath and a real garland and so on now and then can be good enough, just to do those little extras that make deity worship so pleasantly absorbing. Of course, if someone does have the time and no easy access to a local temple where there is plenty of deity services already, it's great fun to purchase or even to plan and create little outfits for deities that require clothing made.


Other similar forms of Krishna in His different moods and pastimes may be available at a local Hare Krishna temple gift shop, as well as a deity of HDG Srila Prabhupada ki jaya.
