Overview
Hayagriva Puja for families in Rathyatra
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.
Rathyatra is one of the best-known crossings in central Varanasi, linking Sigra, Mahmoorganj and the roads towards the south of the city. Its name comes from the traditional Rath Yatra fair of Lord Jagannath held in the area each year.
वक्रतुण्ड महाकाय सूर्यकोटि समप्रभ।
निर्विघ्नं कुरु मे देव सर्वकार्येषु सर्वदा॥
