    Overview

    Santhana Gopala Homam for families in Assi Ghat

    Santhana Gopala Homam invokes Lord Krishna in his child form as Santhana Gopala. Couples traditionally perform it with the Santhana Gopala mantra, praying to be blessed with a child.

    Assi Ghat sits at the southern end of Varanasi's main stretch of ghats, near where the Assi stream traditionally meets the Ganga. It is more open and relaxed than the ghats further north, and its wide steps make it a popular starting point for a morning on the river.

    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 Assi Ghat

    Mornings are the calmest time; aim to arrive around sunrise if your ritual includes the Ganga.
    Assi is reachable by road, which makes it easier for elderly family members than ghats deep in the old city.
    Boats can be hired at the ghat for travelling along the river to other ghats.
    Crowds increase significantly around Dev Deepawali, Sawan and major snan days, so book accommodation and Pandits early.
    Check with your guest house before planning a havan indoors or on the terrace.
    Share the names, gotra and birth stars of the couple.
    Continue any medical advice you are following; the homam is a prayer alongside it.
