Description
In Hindu astrology and Vedic traditions, the nine celestial planets (Navagraha) exert a powerful influence over human health, wealth, relationships, and spiritual progress. When certain planets are malefic, afflicted, or in unfavorable positions (Graha Dosh), performing an authentic Grah Shanti Puja (Navgrah Shanti) pacifies planetary afflictions and brings peace, harmony, stability, and divine protection.
Now, you can experience the profound benefits of an authentic Grah Shanti Puja from the comfort of your home, through our online puja services. This sacred ritual will be performed with your name, gotra, and birth chart details (Nakshatra) by experienced Vedic pandits, invoking planetary peace, health, and prosperity for you and your family.
Why Perform the Grah Shanti Puja?
Planetary positions at birth and during dasha periods impact every aspect of life. Performing Grah Shanti Puja pacifies unfavorable planetary energy, eliminates obstacles in career and business, reduces health troubles, and neutralizes evil eye or negative influences (Graha Dosh).

⭐ Special Note for Grah Shanti Puja
If the puja is being performed to pacify a specific planet (e.g. Shani, Rahu, Ketu or Mangal), the quantity of the related item (such as black sesame, jaggery, urad or red lentils) may be increased. After the puja, donate the Navgrah Daan items (grains, cloth, dakshina) to a deserving priest or person in need.
