Specific Pooja utensils are used with a purpose

We have all seen during pujas at home or at social events gleaming golden-colored brass utensils giving a regal touch to the Anusthana. Although that has always been the traditional metal of choice for all pujas off late people are replacing it with stainless steel utensils. Nevertheless, it is to be noted that all ancient scriptures and religious texts clearly say that brass utensils are too used. It's an amazing thing that all the many rules and regulations of Hindu worship may look bewildering to others but all the methods and systems adopted have a valid reason and logic behind them. For instance, a copper bowl with water has Holy basil leaves dipped in it and this is often given to people as a Prasada, which is supposed to have a medicating effect on people with diabetes.

Similarly in Hindu ritual worship, people are using Brass Utensils for ages and they know that it has a valid reason for their use.

Hence these are cleaned very well to ensure it is spotlessly clean and safe for use and doesn’t affect the Prasada items contained in them. As a metal, brass is said to attract spiritual energy that is generated during the pooja and produces positive vibes in whatever it contains. Also, food cooked in brass pots and pans imparts a positive vibe in them and activates the inherent goodness within the food being cooked.
