The Acharya should collect the seeds from the sivakumbha and place them on the heart of
the image. With the consecrated water of the same sivakumbha, he should perform the
ceremonial bath for the Supreme Lord. Then, he should collect the seeds from the saktikumbha
and place them on the pedestal of the image. If the image of Sakti is associated with the image
of Siva, then he should place those seeds on the heart of Sakti image. If the image of Sakti
is associated with a separate pedestal, then the Acharya should commence the process of
installation separately.

In respect of the images made of clay, images in half-relief, abhaasa-image, screen-image or
painted image and stucco image, there is some specific change in the process of offering
the kumbha-water. The Acharya should install a mirror in the shrines designed for them and
perform the ceremonial bath to that mirror. The officiating priests may perform the ceremonial
bath either in a pedestal(wooden plank) or in a bunch of darbha-grass(kurca), placed in the
shrine.
