a. Are there Hindu’s daily and weekly rituals?

Hindu daily rituals include Pancha Karma (5 coveted aspects):

  1. Taking shower (ablution)
  2. Meditate (controlled breathing, mantra chanting)
  3. Tarpan (offering to God, guru, ancestors): Could include water, food, lamp-lighting, incense, creating a pious environment
  4. Yoga: Establishing connection between mind, body, and higher learning
  5. Contemplation (focused deliberation, self-reflection)

The 7 days of the week are dedicated to invoking various virtues via worshipping energy sources (manifestation of Shiva for cosmic & inner balance, manifestation of Lakshmi for expansive prosperity via pious means, manifestation of Sun for vital energy, etc).
