Overview

Kaal Sarp Dosh Puja for families in Luxa

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.

Luxa is a busy central area along the road that connects Godowlia and the old city with Sigra and the newer parts of Varanasi. The road is lined with shops, hospitals, schools and markets, while older family homes and guest houses fill the lanes on either side.

गुरुश्च शुक्रः शनिराहुकेतवः सर्वे ग्रहाः शान्तिकरा भवन्तु॥
