Do you have these Gods in your temple?
God's image or picture is a good thing to have in your temple. You worship them according to your beliefs. But do you know that some gods do more harm than good? If you have their images or pictures, you will do well to remove them immediately.
Picture or image of Nataraja or dancing shiva in the house should be removed at the earliest. People say it is an art form, that is why we keep them. But actually it is the demonic form of shiva, an image of destruction and death, of shiva doing tandav?' Would you like to keep such a thing at home?
Similarly, image of goddess Durga as 'maha kali' should not be at home. Goddess Durga had assumed this form for the destruction of demons. How can she be kept at home?
If you have a 'shani's' idol at home, you will do well to remove it immediately. He carries his wife's curse on his head. He will bring nothing but ill luck in the family. How ever if he is part of the group of nine or 'nav grah' it is okay to keep in the house.
Some people worship 'bhairo baba's' and they like to keep his image at home. But it brings nothing but bad luck because he is worshipped in many tantric rituals. Family folks should never keep his picture or image at home.
Goddess Lakshmi is very kind and brings in lot of prosperity. But suppose she is in a standing position, she would take away every thing for it indicates that one is moving or about to move. It doesn't not indicate stability. Similarly lord Ganesh and goddess Saraswati do have a place in the home temple, but never in standing position.
Don't keep two images of the same God. It brings in nothing but confusion. So what do we do with the spare one or the ones we don't want? You donate them in the public temple straight away or put them in a creek or river.
