About Planetary Remedies (Dosha Nivaran)
When I perform a Shani Shanthi or Kuja Shanthi, the mandala on the floor is not just decoration. It is a sacred geometric Yantra I draw by hand to act as a conduit for the deity's energy. This is why my rituals are not just about chanting; the art helps ground the vibrations and brings immediate focus to your specific dosha.
Many life challenges are linked to the positioning of planets in your birth chart. As a Purohith, I see these doshas not as fixed fates but as imbalances that we can address through prayer, correct ritual procedure, and focused intent.
My Approach to Remedial Rituals
Every ritual begins with a clear diagnosis. I start with a 45-60 minute Jatakam reading to analyze your Lagna and Navamsa charts. We identify whether your struggles—be it in career, marriage, or health—are tied to specific afflictions like Shani Sade Sati, Kuja Dosha, or Kalasarpa Dosha. Once identified, I prescribe the corresponding remedy.
The Role of Art in Ritual
I believe that a ritual must be seen to be felt. My signature approach involves creating intricate mandalas and rangolis using rice flour and flowers. For a Shani Shanthi, the geometric layout of the mandala is critical. For an Ashlesha Bali, the Sarpa Mandala serves as the anchor for the serpent deity’s energy. These are not merely aesthetics; they are traditional structures that focus the energy of the Homa fire.
Homas and Fire Ceremonies
Fire, or Agni, is the messenger between us and the divine. In my homas, we use specific materials—cow ghee, Navadhanya, and silk for the Purnahuti—to ensure the offering is complete. Whether it is a 2-hour Standard Dosha Shanthi or a 6-hour Signature Artistic Homa, the goal remains the same: to mitigate the negative influences of the planets and restore peace to your home and family. I perform these services at your residence or in temples across Bangalore, bringing all necessary Samagri with me.
