Some samagri is offered once and set aside; the vessels and tools of worship are meant to last, cared for and reused across a lifetime of ritual. This guide covers the thirteen vessels and tools in Avyani's Master Samagri Catalogue — what each is for, which metal suits it, and how to buy and keep them well.
Every flower and leaf offered in worship is chosen with intention — some simply for their beauty and fragrance, others reserved for a single deity or a single day in the year. This guide walks through the twenty-one flowers and leaves in Avyani's Master Samagri Catalogue: what each one is, what the texts actually say about it, and how to buy, offer and set it aside with care.

Liquids run through nearly every puja — from the water that sanctifies the space to the sweet Panchamrit shared afterwards as prasad. This guide covers the twelve liquid items in Avyani's Master Samagri Catalogue, what goes into each, and the handling that matters when an offering is later eaten.
Some sacred items are worn close to the body for a lifetime of devotion, others reserved for the deity alone. This guide covers the twelve reusable items in Avyani's Master Samagri Catalogue — malas, ornaments, gem sets and yantras — and what to look for in each.
