    Overview

    Rudra Homam for families in Panchganga Ghat

    Rudra Homam centres on the Sri Rudram from the Krishna Yajurveda, one of the most revered Vedic hymns to Lord Shiva. The Pandits chant the Namakam and Chamakam while offerings of ghee, samidha and other samagri are made into the fire.

    Panchganga Ghat lies on the northern part of Varanasi's riverfront. Its name is traditionally explained as the meeting place of five rivers, and it is one of the ghats pilgrims have long visited for a holy dip in Kashi.

    अग्निमीळे पुरोहितं यज्ञस्य देवमृत्विजम्।

    होतारं रत्नधातमम्॥

    Agnim īḷe purohitaṁ yajñasya devam ṛtvijam, hotāraṁ ratnadhātamam.

    I praise Agni, the priest placed before us, the divine minister of the sacrifice, the invoker, the greatest bestower of treasures.Rig Veda 1.1.1

    Planning Your Puja in Panchganga Ghat

    The ghat is reached on foot through old city lanes; vehicles stop well short of it.
    Steps are steep and can be slippery, so plan carefully for elderly relatives.
    Kartik mornings are busy with devotees taking snan.
    Boats from the central ghats are another way to reach this stretch of the river.
    Water levels rise in the monsoon and the lower steps may be under water.
    Choose Mondays, Pradosh or Sawan dates with the Pandit.
    Share names and gotra for the sankalp.
