Dear Friends,
Jai Shree Krishna,My this doubt may sound a bit foolish but still I need to clear my query about bantaji.
Does Bantaji of various shapes and sizes one containing misiri large, one containing sukha meva medium sized and one containing mukhvas smaller in size for Lord to recognise whatever and which bantaji contains wht or they can be of same size and shape... I'm a bit confused...
Do clear my doubts

jai shree krishna
jignaji it doesnt matter what size the bantaji you use in seva. It matter what aagne you have got from your guru, because some vaishnavs may but only misri, some sukha mevo and some may even put dudh gar samagri in the bantaji during raj bhog or shen time. it according to me i dont think the size of bantaji matters
please correct me if i am wrong

jai shree krishna
jignaji you can buy any size bantaji you want for you thakorji pachi bhav thi misri bhi dharo toh bhi thakorji prem this arogse. Thakorji does look what size bantaji apre ene rakhe pan prem thi bhi bantaji ma apre kai padrewe samagri ke thakorji aroge.
but still if u are confused then for ur normal seva i reckon you should buy a big one (not very big) and for travelling u should buy small one. so in this way every thing sorts out.
please dont hesistate to ask other questions
and correct me if i am wrong

Dear Jaybhai,
Thanks, for your reply. I'll buy bantaji as I like it. I think what I like to buy is what Lord wants me to do... his permission is of utmost important to me. So, I will go to the shop without any prconecptions abt. bantaji and buy whtever I like.
Jai Shree Krishna,
Jigna

Jai Shree Krushna,
It is correctly said that size of bantaji doesnt matter. The size depends on what u want to keep in bantaji. Some vaishnavs regularly keep 'Nagri samagri'(Magaj ni laadudi,etc)in bantaji so they may require big bantaji.Some vaishnavs only keep Misri,elaichi in bantaji so they may require small bantaji. It all depends on what aagna u get from ur gurughar and what is ur bhav. As far as I know bantaji only comes during aanosar time and not during any bhog. The bhav to keep bantaji is like a mother keeping tiffen box of his beloved child. During aanosar time if Thakorji feels hungry, he could have the samagri kept in Bantaji.
Jai Shree Krushna

Jai Shree Krishna
Like mentioned by snehal ben abd Jaybhai, bhav is of teh utmost importance. But however, jignaben while buying Shree Bantaji, please remember as mentioned by snehal ben, it is kept during anosar, hence do not buy something which for example is difficult to hold in your hand, which means shree Thakorji will also face the same difficulty, and also it sould be easy to open, meaning, the lid ought not to be too tight, and avoid thread type lid etc. so that when in his sleep etc. when lalaan gets up to have bhog, he is able to open it easily, without too much of a hastle. This is something that i felt i could share on this topic and hence mentioned it.
Shree Vallabha dheesh ki jai
