The offerings are brought by a young girl and the architect or the priest (archaka) makes the offerings to the dieties by pronouncing their names separately with the mystic syllable Om at the beginning and Namah at the end. For eg., Om Brahmaya Namah.

The offerings normally consist of perfumes, garlands, incense, milk, honey, ghee, milk, boiled rice, roasted rice, fruits, curd, durva(grass), clarified butter, vegetables, sesame seeds, lotus flowers, etc.
