Overview
Grahan Dosh Shanti Puja for families in Assi Ghat
In Jyotish, Grahan Yog is said to form when the Sun or Moon is closely associated with Rahu or Ketu in a birth chart. Families also traditionally perform a shanti when a child is born during a solar or lunar eclipse.
Assi Ghat sits at the southern end of Varanasi's main stretch of ghats, near where the Assi stream traditionally meets the Ganga. It is more open and relaxed than the ghats further north, and its wide steps make it a popular starting point for a morning on the river.
ब्रह्मा मुरारिस्त्रिपुरान्तकारी भानुः शशी भूमिसुतो बुधश्च।
गुरुश्च शुक्रः शनिराहुकेतवः सर्वे ग्रहाः शान्तिकरा भवन्तु॥
Brahmā murāris tripurāntakārī bhānuḥ śaśī bhūmisuto budhaś ca, guruś ca śukraḥ śani rāhu ketavaḥ sarve grahāḥ śāntikarā bhavantu.
