| | Murti - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Murti worship is commonly equated with idolatry by many followers of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. |  | | Murtis (singular Murti, also spelled Murthi or Murthy) refers to deities or images used by Hindus and also by some Mahayana Buddhists during worship as points of devotional and meditational focus. |  | | Because the mind is in turbulence (vritti) and incapable of focussing on God as a formless, abstract concept, God is worshiped in a form. |

| | Murti - definition of Murti in Encyclopedia |
 | | The Hindu belief of murti worship is far closer to that of the icon, and consists of veneration of the image or statue as representative of a higher ideal or principle rather than objectifying divinity as the material object itself. |  | | Murtis are statues or images used as windows or points of devotional and meditational focus. |  | | This view of murtis' being idols imposes many misapplied Judeo-Christian ideas onto Hindu practices; such accusations do not reflect actual Vedic philosophy and Hindu belief. |

| | Heart of Hinduism: The Murti |
 | | Both practically and theologically, the murti may be considered to be God or the specific deity it represents. |  | | Worship of the murti, the sacred image, is central to Hinduism. |  | | The images are merely meditational aids, and represent the different aspects of God who is invisible; Hindus don't actually worship their murtis |

 | | All the different aspects of God's nature are represented by the different forms, or murtis, of the individual gods whom people worship in the temple or at their home shrines. |  | | It is easier to worship God when God's qualities can be brought to mind. |  | | Before worship, they are washed and offered food to demonstrate and symbolize the worshipper's reverence. |

| | Murti Puja |
 | | From the brilliant mind and soul of Adi Shankaracharya to the simple village farmer, murti puja, or image worship, is firmly entrenched in the daily lives of all Hindus through countless generations of fruitful worship. |  | | However, worship of God through belief in His presence in an image is considered to be one of the foremost aids to spiritual realization in Hinduism. |  | | They question the use of murti puja by arguing that if God is present in all creation it means He is present within every atom. |

 | | Such a God-realized Sadhu is to be asked to perform the rituals, and it is when he asks God to enter the murtis and specially become accessible that God cannot refuse. |  | | In the outer sanctums, he asked other senior sadhus to perform the rituals for the murtis of Shiva-Parvati, Ram-Sita, Hanumanji and Ganesh, and the marble murtis of the Guru Parampara placed behind the main sanctum. |  | | Finally, at 9.38 a.m., Swamishri was asked to enter the sanctum sanctorum and begin the final rituals and prayers that would perfectly consecrate the murtis. |

 | | Those who are, by circumstances and position, entitled to worship the Sri Murti in mind have with due deference to the temple institutions, a tendency to worship usually by sravana and kirtana and their church is universal and independent of caste and color. |  | | To tell the truth, Sri Murti worship is the only true worship of the Deity, without which you cannot sufficiently cultivate your religious feelings. |  | | In fact the principle of Sri Murti is the truth itself differently exhibited in different people according to their different phases of thought. |
