Overview

Dhanvantari Homam for families in Shivala

Dhanvantari Homam is a Vedic fire offering dedicated to Lord Dhanvantari, who is described in the Puranas as emerging from the churning of the ocean holding the pot of amrit. He is revered as the deity of Ayurveda and healing.

Shivala is a residential neighbourhood along the river between Assi and Kedar Ghat. Its lanes lead down to Shivala Ghat and the smaller ghats nearby, which are generally calmer than the busy central stretch of Kashi's riverfront.

अग्निमीळे पुरोहितं यज्ञस्य देवमृत्विजम्।

होतारं रत्नधातमम्॥

Rig Veda 1.1.1

Planning Your Puja in Shivala

Vehicles can reach the main road, but the last stretch to houses near the river is often on foot.
Steps down to the ghats can be steep, so plan for elderly relatives.
Mornings are peaceful for snan and sankalp before a home puja.
Water levels rise during the monsoon and some ghat steps may be under water.
Confirm with your guest house before planning a havan on the terrace.
Share the name and gotra of the person the prayer is for.
Continue all medical treatment; the homam is a prayer that complements care.
