Frequently asked
What is Nakshatra Shanti Puja for?
It's traditionally recommended for those born under a challenging birth star (such as a gandmool nakshatra) as a pacification ritual for the star's ruling deity.
Why is this puja performed in Ujjain?
Our on-site pandits perform the ritual in Ujjain, one of India's most significant pilgrimage sites, following the region's traditional nakshatra-shanti sequence.
Do I need my exact birth time to book this?
It helps if you know your janma nakshatra already; if not, share your date, time and place of birth and our priest can help confirm it before the puja.
Can I book this puja on behalf of a family member who isn't present?
Yes, the sankalp only needs the person's name, gotra and birth details, which you can provide at booking.
What if I can't join live at the scheduled time?
We'll work with you to find a slot that fits your time zone, including US and UK evening hours for NRI families. Your session recording is also available for 30 days.
