Prana Tishta - grounding of Chi

Prana Pratishta refers to installation of an image and it's consecration.

It involves reciting of hymns and chants that invite a life energy - Prana - to be the resident guest, in the idol.

It is followed by Nyasa or grounding.

Through texts such as Tantra Tattwa, esoteric tantric traditions follow elaborate rituals to infuse life to a deity.
