Overview

Chandi Homam for families in Narayanaguda

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.

Narayanaguda lies between Himayatnagar, Kachiguda and Chikkadpally in central Hyderabad. It is known for its long established schools and colleges, and for the busy main road that links it to the rest of the city.

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)

Planning your puja in Narayanaguda

The Narayanaguda main road is congested through the day; morning muhurthams are easier.

Share a landmark on the main road, as inner lanes can be confusing.

For a homam in an independent house, the terrace is usually the best spot.

Mention whether your family follows Telugu or another regional vidhi.

Book a few weeks ahead for Navaratri or Ashadha dates.

Choose a venue that allows a sustained homam and has space for several Pandits.
