The miniature murti of Bhagavan Nityananda is a statue for worship.

You may wish to perform a regular or daily worship of the murti.

Here is one possible worship sequence:

1. Open with Sadgurunath Maharaj ki Jay.
2. Offer a fresh flower to the murti.
3. Wave an incense stick before the murti three times in a clockwise direction; as you do so, you can mentally repeat the mantra Om Namah Shivaya or Guru Om.
4. Wave a light (either a candle or a wick soaked in ghee) before the murti three times in a clockwise direction; as you do so, you can mentally repeat the mantra Om Namah Shivaya or Guru Om.
5. Offer a plate of fruit or sweets and, again, a fresh flower. Leave this plate at the altar. After worship, eat the food as Bade Baba’s prasad.
6. Chant verse 32 from Shri Guru Gita:
   
   gurur brahmā gurur viṣṇur gurur devo maheśvaraḥ
   gurur eva parabrahma tasmai śrīgurave namaḥ
   
   The Guru is Brahma.
   The Guru is Vishnu.
   The Guru is Lord Shiva.
   The Guru is, indeed, Parabrahman.
   Salutations to Shri Guru.

1. Take a few moments after the worship for silent prayer or meditation.
