Overview
Navagraha Puja honours the nine celestial influences of Jyotish in a single, complete ritual. Rather than focusing on one planet, the Pandit invites all nine grahas onto a consecrated mandala, offers each its traditional grain, flower and mantra, and prays for harmony across every area of life. For many families it is the most natural starting point when they want a graha shanti but are not sure which planet to focus on.
Durgakund takes its name from the historic Durga temple and the large water tank, or kund, beside it. The area sits in south Varanasi between Bhelupur and Lanka, along the road that leads towards the Sankat Mochan Hanuman temple, and it has long been one of the most devotional parts of Kashi.
