Navgraha Shanti Puja — Baba Basukinath Dham

Navgraha Shanti Puja brings all nine grahas, or planets, into one prayer for balance, offered at Basukinath in Jharkhand near Baba Basukinath Dham. The local priest who performs it takes up to four names into the sankalp. Materials and the exact venue are settled with you before the puja.

What is Navgraha Shanti Puja?

The Navgraha, also written Navgrah, are the nine grahas of Vedic astrology: Surya, Chandra, Mangal, Budh, Guru, Shukra, Shani, Rahu and Ketu. A Navgraha shanti invokes all nine with their mantras, usually with navdhanya, the nine grains, and often with a havan. It is chosen when several planets are believed to be weak or afflicted, rather than one alone. At Basukinath, a local priest performs it for up to four names, and the puja materials are confirmed with you before the puja.

Why devotees book it

• Several planets look weak or afflicted in the kundli, and an astrologer has advised graha shanti
• Seeking balance and peace as a new planetary dasha begins

• Prayer for steadiness when life feels unsettled on many fronts at once
