About Navagraha Shanti
The Navagraha Shanti is the puja of the nine planetary deities — Surya, Chandra, Mangal, Budh, Guru, Shukra, Shani, Rahu and Ketu — worshipped in the traditional order with their own grains, cloths, woods and mantras. Each graha has a fixed number of japa and its own samidha for the havan.
It is kept at a birth, before a marriage, at the start of a dasha, and where a family's custom asks for it annually. The tradition describes it as an act of propitiation and nothing on this site will describe it as producing an outcome. Three hours, at home, with a havan as its closing part.
Keeping a rite in Gaya
Gaya's ritual year is organised around the ancestral rites, and everything else is arranged in the spaces around them. Through Pitru Paksha the town's pandits are committed for the fortnight and a domestic booking is hard to place; the months either side are open.
The town is also where families arrive rather than live, so a rite here is often kept at a lodging or on the Falgu rather than at a home. Samagri is easy to buy close to Vishnupad and the ghats, which is where most of it is sold.
