Overview

Rahu Ketu Shanti Puja for families in Shivala

Rahu and Ketu are the lunar nodes, points in the sky rather than physical planets, and are known in Jyotish as chhaya grahas, or shadow planets. They are traditionally linked with ambition, desire and restlessness (Rahu) and detachment, introspection and spiritual inclination (Ketu). Because they always sit opposite each other, their shanti is often performed together.

Shivala is a residential neighbourhood along the river between Assi and Kedar Ghat. Its lanes lead down to Shivala Ghat and the smaller ghats nearby, which are generally calmer than the busy central stretch of Kashi's riverfront.

ब्रह्मा मुरारिस्त्रिपुरान्तकारी भानुः शशी भूमिसुतो बुधश्च।

गुरुश्च शुक्रः शनिराहुकेतवः सर्वे ग्रहाः शान्तिकरा भवन्तु॥

Planning Your Puja in Shivala

Vehicles can reach the main road, but the last stretch to houses near the river is often on foot.
Steps down to the ghats can be steep, so plan for elderly relatives.
Mornings are peaceful for snan and sankalp before a home puja.
Water levels rise during the monsoon and some ghat steps may be under water.
Confirm with your guest house before planning a havan on the terrace.
Share your kundali so the Pandit can recommend the jaap count.
Keep blue and multicoloured cloth, til and flowers as advised, or ask for samagri.

Rahu Ketu Shanti Puja in Shivala: FAQs

If yours is not here, ask it. A real person answers every message on WhatsApp.

Can a Pandit come to my home in Shivala for Rahu Ketu Shanti Puja?

Yes. Share your location in Shivala, your preferred date and your family's tradition on WhatsApp. We confirm a Pandit who can come to your home, apartment or venue in and around Shivala, Varanasi, along with timing and pricing before you book.

How far in advance should I book Rahu Ketu Shanti Puja in Shivala?

For popular muhurat dates and festival seasons, it helps to enquire a week or two ahead where possible. For other dates, shorter notice is often manageable, we confirm availability on WhatsApp.

How much does Rahu Ketu Shanti Puja cost in Varanasi?

The cost depends on the vidhi, the number of Pandits and travel within Varanasi. Samagri is not included in the dakshina; it is at an additional cost, agreed after discussion with Pandit ji. We share a clear quote on WhatsApp after understanding your requirements, before you confirm anything.

Is Rahu Ketu puja the same as Kaal Sarp Dosh puja?

They are related but different. Kaal Sarp Dosh puja addresses a specific placement of all planets between Rahu and Ketu, while Rahu Ketu shanti addresses Rahu and Ketu more generally.

Do I need my kundali for Rahu Ketu Shanti?

Not necessarily, the puja can be performed with your name and gotra. If you would like to know how Rahu and Ketu sit in your own chart, we recommend speaking with a qualified astrologer or booking a kundali consultation.

Is Rahu Ketu Puja the same as Kaal Sarp Dosh Puja?

They are related but different. Rahu Ketu Shanti focuses on the two grahas generally, while Kaal Sarp puja is performed for a specific planetary arrangement. The Pandit can advise which suits your situation.
