As such, there is no need to follow any religious practice (especially closed practices), though you're free to do so should you subscribe to them!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to Display Consecrated Statues\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRemember, consecration means that the Deities are present. Do treat these as sacred objects, and display them in a clean, dedicated place such as an altar or a cleared space on a table or shelf.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs Consecration Permanent?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Deities are not bound to the objects, but are instead present in the Sacred Space that the Mother has anchored on the objects. Therefore, it is up to Their discretion to stay or leave, though they generally will not leave as long as you treat them with respect, and refrain from actions that go against their moral code (in general, just being a good person and\/or having the sincere aspiration to be a better person is sufficient).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOfferings\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs Mother and the Deities transcend religion, there is no need to follow religious traditions when it comes to offerings, though you're free to do so should you subscribe to said religions. In general, you can't go wrong with fruits, with the added bonus that you can consume them after offering to reduce waste!\u003cbr\u003eDeities would not want you to spent too much on offerings, and would rather that you donated to charity than spent it on flowers!\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdd Ons\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eWe're offering additional services at a discounted rate with every Consecrated Statue or Consecration Service purchased!
