IMPORTANCE OF KALASH STHAPANA(कलश स्र्थापन) AND PURNAHUTI(पूर्णाहुति).

Whenever any sort of Puja is to be performed, the Kalash sthapna and the last aahuti of a yagya are also very important. Avoid all types of shortcuts otherwise the Puja becomes null and void.
On Puja day consumption of drinks & non vegetarian food is totally prohibited. Only filling water in a Kalash is not enough. Flowers and a little rice too has to be added. As per one's ability Kalash may be of Gold, Silver, Copper or Mud. The Kalash should have a smooth surface.
It should have a defined upper rind. Always draw a swastik on the kalash. Keep it next to the portrait or statue of the Deity to be worshipped. Immerse five or seven leaves in the kalash till one fourth mark.
The leaves of Bilva, Banyan, Ashwath ir Dhav are supposed to be very auspicious. Then only you call the devtas(आवाहन) .

In a yagya too, all the prescribed steps should be followed right from selection of wood(Struva) upto last aahuti. Prefer the wood of Bilva, Aawla, Khadir
and Kesar. The Darvi or spoon made of wood from Gambhari, Tendu, Pipal, Mud and the woods which seep milky substance are preferable or of gold and silver too can be used.
Selection of a right Purohit is imperative since depending on the purpose of Yagya, the mantras to be
recited change.
In the last aahuti Yajurved mantra(17.79, 3.50, 19.39, 3.49) should be recited. Last Aahuti(Purnahuti) should be performed standing. Some Yagya's require more than one Purnahuti for eg; Sahastra yagya has two purnahuti.
Rishi Chhand should be recited during mantras along with prayers to the Deity being worshipped.
