WHITE PUJA CLOTHE 1 METRE
Description
White Puja Cloth 1 Metre is plain white cloth sold by the metre for puja use. White is the neutral colour in the mandir, correct wherever no particular colour has been named, which covers most everyday use.
It goes on the mandir shelf under the murtis, folds into an asan to sit on during the puja, wraps offerings being carried to a temple, and is spread out for a shraddh. Because it carries no colour of its own, it is the cloth to buy first when you are setting up a mandir at home from scratch.
When should I use white rather than a colour? Use white when the instruction names no colour, and for a shraddh, where white is the correct choice. Where a colour is named, follow it, yellow for Vishnu, red for the Devi, black for Shani.
Can it be washed and reused? Yes, and it is meant to be. Wash it separately, dry it in the shade, and keep it folded for puja use rather than mixing it back in with household cloth.
For Vishnu and Thursday pujas, the yellow pitambar cloth is the one to use, and Panjab Supermarket’s pooja and festival aisle holds the chunri sets, the lamps and the powders. Wash it on its own the first time in case the dye runs, and dry it in the shade.
