The Acharya should place in an orderly way 8 pots or round vessels(kumbhas) which should
have been wound with three-strand thread and well filled up with water scented with prescribed
ingredients such as cardamom,cloves,camphor and others. They should be with lid, their neck
part being wrapped with white cloth. He should place gold coin along with a buch of darbha-
grass having a knot at its tip(kurca) inside the pots which are to be further furnished with
flowers and mango leaves. These 8 pots are to be placed in eight directions starting from east
and ending with north-east for which Indra and others are the guarding deities. Added to these
8 pots , there should be one more pot known as ‘siva kumbha’ which is to be placed in between
the north and north-east. Then the learned Acharya should worship them with flowers and other
paraphernalia. Consequently, fire ritual and oblations are to be done systematically as explained
earlier under the context of placing the foundation deposit.
