- Spread some rice on the surface and place idols of Goddess Lakshmi and an idol of Lord Ganesha to her left. The layer of rice at the bottom is treated as the Asana (seat).
- Begin the puja by paying your tribute to Lord Ganesha. All the offerings must be first made to Lord Ganesha.
- In case you have idols of Lord Dhanvantari and Lord Kubera, you may place them also on the chowki after spreading some rice on it as asanas for them. If you do not have idols of Lord Kubera and Lord Dhanvantari, use two whole suparis and cover them entirely with kalava (sacred thread). You may then place them as idols of these deities on the chowki.
