Frequently Asked Questions About Brass Singhasan and Chowki

What is a Singhasan or Chowki?

A Singhasan is a decorative throne and a Chowki (or peeta) is a raised platform on which deity idols are placed for worship. They elevate the idol, giving it a place of honour in the pooja room.

Why are idols placed on a Chowki?

Idols are placed on a Chowki or Singhasan to raise them above floor level as a mark of respect, following the tradition that deities should be seated on an elevated, clean platform.

How do I choose the right Singhasan size?

Choose a Singhasan or Chowki slightly larger than the base of your idol so it sits securely and is well framed. Measure the idol's base width before selecting.

Where should I place a Singhasan?

Place it in the pooja room or home temple, positioned so the seated deity faces east or west and the person praying faces the idol.

Is a Singhasan a good gift?

Yes. A brass Singhasan or Chowki is a thoughtful gift for devotees setting up or enhancing a home temple.
