    Overview

    Ayyappa Puja for families in Shivajinagar

    Ayyappa Puja is the worship of Lord Ayyappa, also called Dharma Sastha and Manikanta, the deity of the Sabarimala temple in Kerala. Every year, from around November to January, lakhs of devotees across South India keep a strict deeksha of prayer, simplicity and discipline before making the pilgrimage.

    Shivajinagar is among the oldest parts of the old cantonment, with Russell Market, the Shivajinagar bus station and St Mary's Basilica at its centre and Commercial Street just to the south. Narrow lanes are packed with shops, wholesale markets and old houses.

    वक्रतुण्ड महाकाय सूर्यकोटि समप्रभ।

    निर्विघ्नं कुरु मे देव सर्वकार्येषु सर्वदा॥

    Planning Your Puja in Shivajinagar

    Traffic around Russell Market and the bus station is heavy for most of the day; early morning is best.
    Lanes are narrow and parking is scarce; the Pandit usually comes by auto.
    Deepavali evening is the busiest time for shop poojas, so book early and share exact timings.
    Mention whether you need a Kannada, Tamil, Hindi or Gujarati speaking Pandit.
    Tell us whether you need a regular pooje, Padi Pooje or Irumudi Kettu, and the size of your group.
    Mention whether you want Malayalam, Tamil, Kannada or Telugu bhajans and explanations.
