Overview
Hayagriva Puja for families in Chitaipur
Hayagriva Puja is the worship of Lord Hayagriva, the form of Lord Vishnu with the head of a horse, honoured as the lord of knowledge and learning. He is especially revered in the Sri Vaishnava and Madhva traditions of South India, often together with Goddess Lakshmi as Lakshmi Hayagriva.
Chitaipur is a developing residential area in the southern part of Varanasi, near Sundarpur and the roads leading towards BHU. New apartment buildings, independent houses and colonies have come up here as the city has grown.
