Panchpatra is an integral part of poojas where in the holy charan amrit is placed before the pooja and then distributed upon the Pooja's completion. The Charanamrit literally means Amrit (Holy Nectar) from the Charan (Feet of the Lord) of the worshipped deity and is partaken as a sacred offering or a holy gift after the completion of the pooja. In many Hindu homes the cooked food is first offered to the Lord each day and is then consumed by everyone else. The offered food is mixed with the rest of the food and then served as prasad.
Pali is used as a vital part of the poojas. There is a conception of Charanamrita rituals. Panchpatra & Pali are the Pooja items that contain this Charanamrita. These containers are placed before the gods or the goddesses just before all the other rituals for the poojas begin to take place. They are gifts to the deity and that is why Panchpatra & Pali are hugely important for the successful Poojas. They are regarded as holy things and everyone is not allowed to touch these items except for the Purahit or the worshiper himself. Actually the word Charanamrita means the holy nectar and there are lots of folk tales related to this item. After the pooja is completed, Charnamrit is given to the people as gifts from gods and goddesses. The devotees drink it.
