    Overview

    Ayushya Homam for families in Vidyanagar

    Ayushya Homam is a Vedic homam dedicated to Ayur Devata, the deity associated with lifespan (ayus). It is especially common in South Indian households, where it is traditionally performed on a child's first birthday and on birthdays reckoned by janma nakshatra, the lunar star under which a person was born.

    Vidyanagar lies between Osmania University, Adikmet and Nallakunta in central Hyderabad. As the name suggests, it has a long association with education, and many university staff and professionals have made their homes here.

    ॐ त्र्यम्बकं यजामहे सुगन्धिं पुष्टिवर्धनम्।

    उर्वारुकमिव बन्धनान्मृत्योर्मुक्षीय माऽमृतात्॥

    Oṁ tryambakaṁ yajāmahe sugandhiṁ puṣṭivardhanam, urvārukam iva bandhanān mṛtyor mukṣīya mā'mṛtāt.

    We worship the three-eyed Lord, fragrant and nourishing. May he free us from bondage, as a ripe cucumber from its vine, and lead us towards immortality.Mahamrityunjaya Mantra, Rig Veda 7.59.12
