Bhavna : After meeting the gopikas and fulfilling their wishes, prabhu moves towards Nandalaya where Shri Yashodaji is eagerly waiting for his son's arrival. On seeing him coming Shri Yashodaji rejoices and rushes to greet him at the doorstep. Shri Yashodaji does his Aarti to do away with any evil influences. She takes prabhu inside, takes away all his ornaments, refreshes him and serves dinner for him.

Sewa-Kram : First enter the sewa room after taking permission. Do achman-mukhvastra and take away the bhog. Now offer malaji(flower garland) and vetra (cowherd's stick) to shriji. Do darshan for a moment (bhavna of Sandhya-Arti darshan) then take away the venu (shriji's flute) and vetra and keep them in the shringar box. Now one-by-one take away the chowpat & khand. After doing all this take away the shringars that were put on shriji earlier/in the morning, put them in the shringar box. Refill the jhariji and offer the shayan bhog - dinner (Many people also keep milk as Shayan bhog). Leave the sewa room after doing vigyapti.

Duration of bhog : The duration of Shayan-bhog is 15 minutes.
