Overview
Durga Puja for families in Shankarapuram
Durga Puja honours Goddess Durga, the fierce yet compassionate form of Shakti who, in the Devi Mahatmya, defeats the buffalo demon Mahishasura. She is worshipped as a mother who protects her devotees and restores balance when adharma rises.
Shankarapuram sits between Basavanagudi, Chamarajpet and Hanumanthanagar and takes its name from the Shankara Mutt, a branch of the Sringeri Sharada Peetham. The streets are mostly residential, with old tiled houses slowly giving way to small apartment buildings.
या देवी सर्वभूतेषु शक्तिरूपेण संस्थिता।
नमस्तस्यै नमस्तस्यै नमस्तस्यै नमो नमः॥
Yā devī sarvabhūteṣu śaktirūpeṇa saṁsthitā, namastasyai namastasyai namastasyai namo namaḥ.

Durga Puja Traditions in Bangalore
- Navaratri in Ashwayuja and Tuesdays and Fridays through the year are the most requested times.
- Bengali families often want the Pandit around specific tithis such as Ashtami and Sandhi Puja, which can fall at inconvenient hours; confirm timing early.
- Saptashati path with a homa needs a ventilated space; many apartments prefer the path alone.
- Traffic around pandals and temple streets rises sharply during Navaratri evenings, so allow extra travel time.
