of the linga. The pot should have been filled up with water whose measure is
to be one drona(2 surpas) and been well wound round with three-stranded thread. It should
be invested with a specially designed darbha(kurca), dressed with cloth, deposited with
five gems and provided with the lid of coconut fruit and mango leaves. He should

siva kumbha, he should install sakti kumbha known as vardhani kalasa well wound round
with the thread and furnished with essential things.
