    Overview

    Chandi Homam for families in Nampally

    Chandi Homam is a fire ritual dedicated to Goddess Chandi, the fierce form of Durga. It is traditionally performed alongside the recitation of the Durga Saptashati (Devi Mahatmyam), with offerings made into the holy fire as its verses are chanted.

    Nampally is one of the oldest parts of central Hyderabad, around the Hyderabad Deccan railway station, the Public Gardens and the exhibition grounds that host the annual Numaish each January and February.

    या देवी सर्वभूतेषु शक्तिरूपेण संस्थिता।

    नमस्तस्यै नमस्तस्यै नमस्तस्यै नमो नमः॥

    Yā devī sarvabhūteṣu śaktirūpeṇa saṁsthitā, namastasyai namastasyai namastasyai namo namaḥ.

    To the Goddess who dwells in all beings in the form of power, salutations to her, again and again.Devi Mahatmyam (Durga Saptashati)
