Nandin said: The devotee shall bathe the lord of the chiefs of Devas for the suppression of all sins. He shall then offer the following to the deity: Clothes, the sacred thread, Ācamanīya, scents and flowers, incense, light, cooked rice, scented water and Ācamanīya once again. Thereafter he shall offer a crown, an umbrella and ornaments. Repeating the Praṇava alone he shall offer the scented betel.
