Overview
Surya Graha Shanti for families in Maidagin
Surya is the soul of the Navagraha, the visible source of light and life, associated in Jyotish with the self, vitality, confidence, leadership and one's relationship with father and authority. Surya Graha Shanti is a bright, uplifting ritual performed to honour him.
Maidagin is a busy crossing and neighbourhood in the northern part of old Varanasi, close to Chowk and the old city lanes. It is a key junction where traffic from the newer parts of the city meets the narrow streets leading into old Banaras.
ब्रह्मा मुरारिस्त्रिपुरान्तकारी भानुः शशी भूमिसुतो बुधश्च।
गुरुश्च शुक्रः शनिराहुकेतवः सर्वे ग्रहाः शान्तिकरा भवन्तु॥
Brahmā murāris tripurāntakārī bhānuḥ śaśī bhūmisuto budhaś ca, guruś ca śukraḥ śani rāhu ketavaḥ sarve grahāḥ śāntikarā bhavantu.
