Why use marigold in spiritual rituals?  All grace is marigold

Everyone says that flowers can be placed in the place where the gold should be placed, if there is no facility for gold.  Flower is very sacred.  Due to the sweetness and fragrance of the flowers, they have got the highest place in this world.  Although the days of flowers life are short, the sanctity of the flower  is immeasurable.

Its mind-blowing colors and its divine fragrance can transport us to another world.  That is why flowers are given great importance in worships and prayers that praise the Lord.  But it is impossible to offer all kinds of flowers to all deities.  Specific flowers can be offered to specific deities.

For example Tulsi cannot be offered to Shiva.  But it can be tied as a garland to Lord Vishnu. Indian bael can be offered to Lord Shiva,scutch grass to Lord Ganesha and red flowers to Goddess.  As such, marigolds have a place of their own among the flowers offered to God.

A wonderful result of one’s continuous worship of the Lord with marigolds is that one’s arrogance and ego will gradually disappear.  Blooming from a single seed, this flower has a striking arrangement of petals.  This implies that no matter how different the circumstances of an individual may be, he must be united in the central point of spirituality.

Similarly, another peculiarity of marigold is that unlike other flowers, it can pollinate other flowers with its own petals.  It represents the basis of karma.  It means that the actions we do become karmic actions and then we take another form that suits it.

They give preference to this flower first to set up thorana not only in houses, special places but also in temples.  Due to the unique aroma given by this flower, no evil forces can enter the house.  This flower will ward off all kinds of evil forces.  And it is noteworthy that its fragrance is refreshing even when its petals are withered.  Samanthi is a suitable flower for the Lord because of these holy qualities which bring benefits to others even if they repent.

Is this flower plant in your house? Do not wander anywhere in search of Job.

Don’t keep these idols and worship them in the pooja room. Suffering will come to the family.
