News Topical, Digital Desk : Lord Krishna's child form, "Laddu Gopal," is like a member of the family. Devotees don't just consider him an idol, but serve him as the youngest child in the family. Many devotees often wonder whether it's possible to keep more than one Laddu Gopal, or two, in a home? And if so, what are the rules for keeping them?
It often happens that a Laddu Gopal is already present in the house, but someone presents us with another idol, or our mind is drawn to another child form. According to scriptures and beliefs, there's no prohibition on keeping two Laddu Gopal in the home, but the responsibility of "serving" them doubles.
1. No room for discrimination
Just as a mother doesn't differentiate between her two children, you must serve both Laddu Gopals with equal devotion. It shouldn't be that new clothes are brought for the new Laddu Gopal, while the old one is neglected. Both should be adorned and pampered equally.
2. Rules for offering and bathing
The mainstay of serving Laddu Gopal is his daily rituals. If you keep two Laddu Gopal, it's essential to wake them up together, bathe them together, and offer them food together. Feeding one and forgetting the other is considered a sin.
3. Brotherly Feeling
Feelings are paramount in the path of devotion. If you have two Laddu Gopals, you can serve them as your elder brother and younger brother (like Krishna and Balarama). This prevents conflict in the home and increases love
Do not make these mistakes even by mistake
Don't leave him alone: If you're going out, leave Laddu Gopal in the care of a neighbor or trusted person who can care for him. Don't leave him locked up inside the house.
