offered separately. If not available, bali should be offered starting from the gaurdians of the entrance. Bali

directions. Then bali for the Rudras, in the east; for the Matrus, in the south; for the Ganas, in the west; for the
Yakshas, in the north; for the Grahas, in the north-east; for the Asuras, in the south-east; for the Rakshasas, in
the south-west; For the Nagas, in the north-west; for the Nakshatras, the group of Rasis and Visvedevas,
