意思
Engaging in religious worship.
文化背景
Rituals are often very detailed, following 'Shorashopachara' (16 steps), including bathing the idol and offering specific sweets like Modaks. Emphasis is on 'Bhajan' and 'Kirtan' as a form of worship, often considering the act of walking to Pandharpur as the ultimate pooja. Many young professionals perform a 'short-cut' pooja, simply lighting an agarbatti (incense stick) before leaving for work. During festivals like 'Bail Pola', farmers perform pooja of their bulls, decorating them and thanking them for the harvest.
Remove Shoes
Always remember that 'pūjā karaṇē' is done barefoot. If you are describing the act, the context of cleanliness is implied.
Gender Agreement
Remember: 'Pūjā' is feminine. So in the past tense, it's always 'kelī', regardless of who did it. 'Me kelī', 'Tyāne kelī', 'Tine kelī'.
