A pooja space helps create a peaceful corner at home. It brings focus, calm, and a routine for daily prayer. Setting up a small mandir does not need too many items. A few basic pooja essentials are enough to begin. These pieces make your pooja easy, organised, and meaningful.
Here are the simple items you can add to your pooja area.
1. Idol

Every pooja begins with an idol. Choose an idol of the deity you pray to. Keep it clean and placed on an even surface. Many people prefer brass or stone idols because they look simple and last long. You can keep one main idol and a few small ones if you like.
2. Diya

A diya is used to light a flame during prayer. It is said to bring peace and positive energy. Brass diyas are a good choice because they are strong and easy to clean. Lighting a diya every morning or evening is a simple way to begin your prayer routine.
3. Ghanti (Bell)

The bell is rung before starting the pooja. It is believed that the sound helps remove negative energy and builds focus. A small metal bell works well for daily use. Place it close to your idol so it is easy to reach.
4. Pooja Thali
A pooja thali keeps all your pooja items in one place. It usually holds kumkum, rice, diya, flowers and prasad. Using a good thali keeps your space neat and makes pooja easy.

5. Incense Holder

Incense helps make the space calm and pleasant. Instead of keeping incense loose, use an incense holder. It keeps the area clean and safe. Choose a simple brass or metal incense holder that is easy to maintain.
6. Urli
An urli is a decorative bowl placed near the pooja space. Many people fill it with water and flowers. It adds a peaceful feel to the area.
ALCU’s urli pieces are made to suit small and large spaces. You can keep them at the entrance or near the mandir.
