Overview
Gayatri Homam for families in Shankarapuram
Gayatri Homam is built around the Gayatri Mantra from the Rig Veda, one of the most revered mantras in Hindu tradition. Offerings are made into the fire as the mantra is chanted a set number of times, often 108 or 1008.
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.

Agnim īḷe purohitaṁ yajñasya devam ṛtvijam, hotāraṁ ratnadhātamam.
