Overview

Ganga Puja for families in Shankarapuram

Ganga Puja is the worship of Goddess Ganga, honoured as a mother who purifies and gives life. In Varanasi, where the river turns north along the ghats, Ganga Puja is part of daily life, and families come from across the world to offer prayers on her banks.

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.

वक्रतुण्ड महाकाय सूर्यकोटि समप्रभ।

निर्विघ्नं कुरु मे देव सर्वकार्येषु सर्वदा॥

Traditional Ganesha prayer

Planning Your Puja in Shankarapuram

Streets are narrow with limited parking; weekday mornings are generally calm.
Share your sutra (Apasthamba, Bodhayana and so on) and Veda shakha when booking a samskara.
Independent houses often have a courtyard or terrace suited to a homa.
PujaKarma is not connected with the Shankara Mutt; we arrange Pandits for homes and halls.
Decide whether you want a home puja, a Kaveri visit or an online Varanasi puja, and tell us which.
Keep Gangajal, a copper or brass kalasha, flowers and lamps ready for a home puja.

Ganga Puja Traditions in Bangalore

  • Ganga Dussehra falls in Jyeshtha, usually in late May or June, just as the monsoon begins in Bangalore.
  • Deep daan into a river is not possible in the city; at home, lamps are lit before the Gangajal kalasha instead.
  • Srirangapatna is roughly a two to three hour drive depending on traffic, so a river visit is a day trip.
  • Lakes and kalyanis in Bangalore are not used for Ganga Puja rites; please do not immerse offerings in them.
