Overview
Satyanarayan Puja for families in Alwal
Satyanarayan Puja is one of the most widely performed household pujas in India. It honours Lord Vishnu in his form as Satyanarayan, the embodiment of truth (satya), and centres on the Satyanarayan Vrat Katha, traditionally attributed to the Reva Khanda of the Skanda Purana.
Alwal lies in the northern part of Secunderabad, near Bolarum and on the way towards Kompally. It has a long history as a settled residential area, with traditional neighbourhoods and independent houses at its core.
ॐ नमो भगवते वासुदेवाय॥
Oṁ namo bhagavate vāsudevāya.
Planning your puja in Alwal
Railway crossings and busy main roads can slow travel, allow extra time for early muhurthams.
New gated communities require gate passes, register the Pandit with security in advance.
Independent houses often have terraces suited for a homam; apartments should check society rules.
Share a pinned location, as some newer projects are not well mapped.
Plan around Bonalu processions in Ashadha, when some roads are crowded.
Tell us if you follow the Telugu vratham or the North Indian katha, and your preferred language.
Keep banana plants or leaves, fruits, flowers and prasadam ingredients ready, or ask for samagri to be arranged.
