A Pooja Chowki, also known as a Pooja Bajot or Singhasan, is a small, elevated platform or table used in Hindu prayer rituals. Its primary purpose is to provide a sacred and designated space for placing deities, idols, and other holy items, signifying respect and separating the divine from the material world. Pooja chowkis are often made from auspicious materials like teakwood or brass and can be simple or ornately decorated with intricate carvings and designs. They serve as a focal point for worship, helping to create a serene and devotional atmosphere.
