Sarkar told, a birthday celebration should begin with collective Iishvara Prańidhána. Then the birthday person should receive blessings and the auspicious tilaka mark (sandal paste, kumkum, etc.) from the elders; accept salutations, garlands and sandal paste from the juniors; and then accept presents and food. Incense, candles, blowing of conch shells, etc., are not essential for all auspicious occasions, but they may be used if people so desire. | |||
