Why You Shouldn't Stand Directly Before Thakur Ji for Darshan: Pandit Reveals Secrets

• Idols imbued with immense energy (Pran Pratishtha); direct viewing can be overwhelming, like sun's rays.
• Standing directly implies ego; side viewing demonstrates humility and 'dasya bhava' (servitude).
• Scriptures advise sequential darshan (feet, waist, chest, face); direct viewing can distract from devotion.
• Braj tradition warns against the evil eye; temples' energy waves are best absorbed gradually from the side.
• This practice ensures devotee safety, fosters devotion, and maintains energy balance.

Why It Matters: Side darshan of Thakur Ji fosters humility, balances energy, and deepens devotion.
