These some of the important points to be remembered, by all, women on some points.
 The front of the house should be swept and Rangoli drawn. The front enterance should be always clean and have look of a Happy household.
 A Tulasi plant is a must in any Bramin Houehold.
 Recite Rama Nama as many times as possible every day.
 1. One should never take a head bath without applying oil, at least a drop should be applied.
  2. While Puja, is in progress, don't, fight, talk loudly , argue , don't keep the TV on and watch the Tv most of the time, do keep your Mobiles on silent. Concentrate on the Puja and pray.
 3. Don't leave foot wear right in front of the entrance.
 4. Never sweep and wipe the house, after Puja and in the evenings, after the sundown.
 5. Don't wear torn, discolored clothes, especially women should not wear patched and torn Sari's.
 6. While lighting the Evening, light , keep the front door open and back door closed.
 7.  Welcome and show respect to Bramins and Savashni/Muthaidhis and also guests. Athithi Devo Bhava .
 8. While giving any fruit coconut  or anything, do give only good ones and dont pass away spoilt and rotten fruit etc.
  The place where gods are kept should be clean  and look pleasing.
 The house should also be kept looking spic and span, with the lady of the house neat and dressed well, Our house is our Temple .
  Women , in house should not cry for every little thing and be sad,
 JUST LIKE WHEN WE GO TO STAY FOR HOLIDAYS, IN ANY PLACE ,WE EXPECT THE PLACE TO CLEAN , THE GODDESS OF PROSPERITY AND GOD WILL LIKE A CLEAN PLACE TO STAY.
