What is the worship sequence before reciting the Mala Mantra, and who performs Viniyoga and Nyasa?
Before the Mala Mantra, the Guru and Lord Ganesha are worshipped first, followed by an invocation to Lord Surya and his consort Chhaya (Shani's mother); those wearing the sacred thread (Yajnopavita) then perform Viniyoga and Nyasa, while women, uninitiated boys, and men without the sacred thread recite the Mala Mantra directly.
