Overview

Shiv Mahapuran Katha for families in Durgakund

Shiv Mahapuran Katha is a programme in which a kathavachak recites and explains the Shiva Purana over several days, commonly seven or nine. The katha covers the greatness of Shiva, the stories of Sati and Parvati, the Jyotirlingas and the path of devotion.

Durgakund takes its name from the historic Durga temple and the large water tank, or kund, beside it. The area sits in south Varanasi between Bhelupur and Lanka, along the road that leads towards the Sankat Mochan Hanuman temple, and it has long been one of the most devotional parts of Kashi.

सर्वमङ्गलमाङ्गल्ये शिवे सर्वार्थसाधिके।

शरण्ये त्र्यम्बके गौरि नारायणि नमोऽस्तु ते॥

Planning Your Puja in Durgakund

Roads around the temple become very crowded during Navratri, so plan early-morning pujas and allow extra travel time.
Book Pandits well ahead for Durga Saptashati path during Navratri, as demand is high across the city.
Flower and samagri stalls near the temple make last-minute items easy to find.
Guest houses may not allow a havan indoors; ask about a terrace before planning a fire ritual.
Tuesdays and Saturdays bring extra traffic on the Sankat Mochan road.
Decide the number of days.
Plan daily abhishek and prasad.
