• Whole Coconut: Typically, these are mature, brown coconuts with a hard, fibrous husk. They are often selected for their size and freshness since they are meant for offering.
• Broken Coconut: In some rituals, the coconut is broken before or during the poojah. When broken, it reveals the white flesh inside along with the water, symbolizing the breaking of the ego and the release of the inner purity.

• Purity: The coconut's white kernel represents purity. It's believed that breaking a coconut signifies the shattering of one's ego, an essential step in many spiritual practices.

• Sacrifice: Offering a coconut is seen as a form of sacrifice, where the person offers something valuable as a symbol of devotion to the deity.

• Poojah: During Pooja or worship, a coconut might be placed in front of the deity as an offering.
• Special Occasions: Coconuts are used in various ceremonies like weddings, housewarming (Griha Pravesh), and during festivals like Navratri or Diwali.
• Aarti: Sometimes, a coconut is used during Aarti (a part of puja where light from wicks soaked in ghee or camphor is offered to one or more deities) where the coconut is held or placed near the deity, and then it can be distributed as prasad (blessed food).

• Before being used in a Pooja, the coconut might be cleaned, sometimes decorated with turmeric, kumkum (red powder), or sandalwood paste, and adorned with leaves or flowers to enhance its ritualistic significance.

• The coconut is often consumed as prasad by the devotees after the rituals, sharing the blessings and the sanctity of the offering.
