Overview

Shashtipurti for families in Rajendranagar

Shashtipurti marks the completion of sixty years of life, when the sixty year cycle of the Hindu calendar comes back to the year of one’s birth. It is one of the most important family celebrations in Telugu, Tamil and Kannada homes, and increasingly in North Indian families too.

Rajendranagar spreads out south of the city along the Bangalore highway, best known for the agricultural university campus and the research farms around it. Much of the land here is still open, with fields, nurseries and older village settlements between the newer residential pockets.

माङ्गल्यं तन्तुनानेन मम जीवनहेतुना।
कण्ठे बध्नामि सुभगे त्वं जीव शरदां शतम्॥

Māṅgalyaṁ tantunānena mama jīvanahetunā, kaṇṭhe badhnāmi subhage tvaṁ jīva śaradāṁ śatam.

With this holy thread, the cause of my life, I tie the mangalya around your neck, O auspicious one. May you live for a hundred autumns.Traditional vivaha mantra

Planning your puja in Rajendranagar

For a Bhoomi Puja, clear and level a small patch on the plot and arrange drinking water and shade, as sites here are open and can be hot by mid-morning.

Share the survey number or a map pin along with the address, since many plots have no house number yet.

Travel from central Hyderabad takes time, especially on the highway stretch; confirm the muhurtham early so the Pandit can leave with margin.

Carry or arrange bricks, a small kalasham and the navadhanyalu in advance if the site has no shops nearby.

Gated projects will usually need the Pandit's details registered at the gate.

Share the birth star and date to fix the muhurtham.

Plan new clothes, mangalsutra and gifts for the couple as per custom.
