    Overview

    Shiv Puja for families in Erragadda

    Shiv Puja is the traditional worship of Lord Shiva in a simpler, accessible form. It usually includes Ganesh puja, jal or milk abhishek of the Shivling, offering of bel patra, dhatura and white flowers, chanting of Om Namah Shivaya and Shiva stotras, and aarti. It can be performed with or without Mata Parvati and the Shiva parivar.

    Erragadda sits on the north-west corridor of Hyderabad, with a metro station on the main road and the ESI and Chest Hospital campuses close by. Older housing colonies, market streets and a steady flow of hospital visitors give the area its everyday rhythm.

    ॐ त्र्यम्बकं यजामहे सुगन्धिं पुष्टिवर्धनम्।

    उर्वारुकमिव बन्धनान्मृत्योर्मुक्षीय माऽमृतात्॥

    Oṁ tryambakaṁ yajāmahe sugandhiṁ puṣṭivardhanam, urvārukam iva bandhanān mṛtyor mukṣīya mā'mṛtāt.

    We worship the three-eyed Lord, fragrant and nourishing. May he free us from bondage, as a ripe cucumber from its vine, and lead us towards immortality.Mahamrityunjaya Mantra, Rig Veda 7.59.12

    Planning your puja in Erragadda

    The main road near the metro station and the market is congested through the day; early morning is far easier for everyone.
    Colony lanes are narrow and often parked up, so give a landmark and your house or block number when you book.
    If the puja is for someone unwell, say so, and keep the setup in a quiet room away from the main hall.
    Terraces in older houses are usually the best place for a homam; check that the water tank and wiring are clear of the kund.
    Say whether you would like the mantras explained in Telugu so the family can follow along.
    Tell us whether you want the Telugu or North Indian vidhi.
    Keep bilva leaves, milk, flowers and vibhuti ready, or ask for samagri.
