Overview
Kaal Sarp Dosh Puja for families in Lanka
Kaal Sarp Yog is a term used when all seven classical grahas fall on one side of the Rahu Ketu axis in a birth chart. It is described in several forms, such as Anant, Kulik, Vasuki and Shankhpal, depending on where Rahu and Ketu are placed.
Lanka is the busy neighbourhood outside the main gate of Banaras Hindu University (BHU). Its roads are full of students, teachers, shops and eateries, and the residential colonies around it are home to many university and hospital families.

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.
Planning your puja in Lanka

Tuesdays and Saturdays are busy near the Hanuman temple, so allow extra time on those days.
