Choosing the Right Room

North-East Corner (Ishanya)

The northeast corner is believed to be the best location for placing a pooja mandir. This is because it attracts positive energies and is said to be the dwelling of gods.

Living Room

In case there’s no pooja room available, the living room can be an alternative. However, note that the mandir facing should be toward either east or north. 

Kitchen

It’s common in certain cultures for a mandir to be placed in the kitchen. It is advisable to position it in the kitchen's north-east corner. 

Avoiding Certain Areas

Bedroom

It's best not to put the­ pooja mandir in your slee­ping space. That's seen as impolite­. Our bedrooms are for rest and pe­rsonal moments, not a good fit for religious activities. Also, it could me­ss up the mandir’s sacred fe­el.

Underneath Staircases

Usually, people tend to stay away from such a place because it brings bad luck. The area beneath the staircases is frequently disorganized and not acceptable for worship. Worship’s upward spiritual aspirations are contradicted by its perceived downward movement.

Near Bathrooms

It is essential not to place a temple in adjacent or facing bathrooms. This is because bathrooms are considered dirty areas and placing a mandir in this kind of location may spoil its sanctity. Also, the wooden temple will eventually be ruined due to dampness coming from both water and humidity.

Height and Placement

Elevated Position

The mandir must be positioned high enough so that when one stands, the idols and pictures are at their eye level. This allows for comfortable viewing and respect during prayers. Elevation also signifies the higher status of deities.

Clean and Clutter-Free Space

In order to maintain its sanctity, the area surrounding the temple should be clean and devoid of clutter. A space without clutter facilitates better concentration during prayers. The purity of the pooja place must be constantly kept through cleaning and regular maintenance.

Material and Design

Wooden Pooja Mandirs

For aesthetic appeal and durability, wooden mandirs are considered traditional and revered. If you want longevity and elegance, teakwood is a good option to use. An excellent representation of a traditional wooden pooja mandir is Suramya Floor Rested Pooja Mandir.
