Why Dwara Balakas standing at the doorsteps of a temple ?
One should get the permission mentally from Dwarapalakas, before entering the temple.
If their names are known, one should spell the name and say 'Namonamah' one by one. The names depend on the Agama Sastra which is followed.
Archaka (Priest) should get permission from Dwarapalaka while opening the respective gate.
Bali (prasada neivatyam) should be offered to Dwarapalakas along with other parivara devatas after main deities. Arghyam, Padyam, Achamanam, etc. are also to be done to Dwarapalakas.
2) Dwarapalaka - Tatvarta;
Dwarapalakas represent a stage in the spiritual progress of an Atma.
salokya moksham: living on the same planet with Godhead
sarshthi moksham: have the same opulence as Godhead
samîpya moksham: be a personal associate to Godhead
sarupya moksham: have the same bodily features as Godhead
ekatva moksham: be in oneness with Godhead
Saamipyam occurs when you reach Vaikunta finally and you are near the God. Sarupyam is getting a look which is similar to that of the paramatma. This occurs quite early in the journey depending on how intense is your bhakthi. The more you think about Paramatma and the more you yearn for reaching him you get the features and look of the paramatma himself. That is why you find the Dwarapalakas in the Temples looking like the presiding deity itself with conch and disk and four hands, kireetam, the satvik look etc.
Thus temple is like Vaikuntam or Shivaloka where Nityasuris live. Dwarapalaka is one among them!
