How to keep the conch (Shanka) after pooja (puja)?

  1. Should it be filled with water and kept next to idol?
  2. Should it be kept upside down with no water in it?

  • 1. if the shankh is inclined towards right - called dakhinaavarti shank (in the south it is known as balamuri) & used to represent a deity & worshipped as god, it should to be keep it next to other idols. but, if it is used only to perform abhishekam it can be kept along with other pooja artiles. 2. it is not necessary to keep it upside down. this might keep it free from dust etc. Oct 23, 2017 at 9:07
