Astrologer outlines correct procedures to follow when a diya extinguishes or a mantra is recited incorrectly during Diwali worship.
Diwali celebrations across India involve elaborate puja rituals, where lighting diyas and chanting mantras are considered essential for invoking prosperity and warding off negativity.
If a diya unexpectedly goes out during the ceremony, the astrologer advises that worshippers should calmly relight it without breaking the flow of the ritual, preferably using the same oil and wick, and repeat the associated prayer to maintain continuity.
In case a mantra is uttered incorrectly, the recommendation is to pause, acknowledge the slip, and repeat the correct verse three times, ensuring the pronunciation aligns with traditional guidelines before proceeding further.
The astrologer also cautions against hurried recitations; taking a moment to focus on each syllable helps prevent errors and preserves the auspicious energy of the festival.
