Overview
Saraswati Homam for families in Chowk
Saraswati Homam is a Vedic fire offering to Goddess Saraswati, the deity of knowledge, speech, music and the arts. Offerings are made into the fire with Saraswati mantras and stotras.
Chowk is the old commercial heart of Varanasi, a dense network of lanes filled with wholesale markets, silk and sari shops, sweet shops and tall old houses. It lies in the old city between Godowlia and Maidagin, with the lanes towards Kashi Vishwanath close by.
अग्निमीळे पुरोहितं यज्ञस्य देवमृत्विजम्।
होतारं रत्नधातमम्॥
Agnim īḷe purohitaṁ yajñasya devam ṛtvijam, hotāraṁ ratnadhātamam.
