In Hinduism
Pancaratra (worship of Nārāyaṇa)
Source: archive.org: Catalogue of Pancaratra Agama TextsMaṇḍapratiṣṭhā (मण्डप्रतिष्ठा) refers to the “consecration rites for maṇḍapa-pavilions”, as discussed in the sixteenth chapter of the Nāradīyasaṃhitā: a Pāñcarātra document comprising over 3000 verses in 30 chapters presenting in a narrative framework the teachings of Nārada to Gautama, dealing primarily with modes of worship and festivals.—Description of the chapter [maṇḍapādi-pratiṣṭhā-sthāpana]: Gautama [sic] turns to matters here of making temples and their various parts ready for use. First in regard to maṇḍapas [e.g., maṇḍapratiṣṭhā], one must prepare kuṇḍa (fire-pits) for the necessary homa-rites (1-9), followed the next morning by invoking the presence of divine powers around about the premises of the maṇḍapa (10-14). Next, in regard to gopuras, here also fire-pits are to be constructed, homa-rites are to be done, and sprinklings along with invocations are to be made to the deities being installed around the superstructure (15-21). Finally, one must also attend to certain rites, dedicating the mahānasa-kitchen for divine uses (22-24).

Pancaratra (पाञ्चरात्र, pāñcarātra) represents a tradition of Hinduism where Narayana is revered and worshipped. Closeley related to Vaishnavism, the Pancaratra literature includes various Agamas and tantras incorporating many Vaishnava philosophies.
