Overview

Annapurna Puja for families in Sarnath

Annapurna Puja is the worship of Goddess Annapurna, a form of Parvati honoured as the giver of food and nourishment. Her name means the one who is full of food, and her worship is an expression of gratitude for every meal and a prayer that no one in the home goes hungry.

Sarnath, a few kilometres north-east of central Varanasi, is revered around the world as the place where the Buddha gave his first sermon after enlightenment. Its stupas, monasteries and museum draw pilgrims and visitors from many countries throughout the year.

Planning Your Puja in Sarnath

Rituals are arranged at homes and hotels, not at the Buddhist heritage sites.
Allow extra travel time if you plan to reach the ghats in Varanasi for a sunrise ritual.
Newer houses in the area often have terraces or open space suitable for a small havan.
Hotels here may host international guests; confirm the property allows a puja before planning.
Keep rice, wheat, a new vessel and cooked food for naivedya ready.
Tell us if the puja is for a new home or kitchen.
