Overview

Tulsi Vivah for families in Shivala

Tulsi Vivah is the ceremonial marriage of the Tulsi plant, revered as Tulsi Devi, with Lord Vishnu in the form of a Shaligram stone or an image of Krishna. It is celebrated in Kartik, usually on Dwadashi after Devuthani Ekadashi, when Vishnu is said to awaken from his four months of rest.

Shivala is a residential neighbourhood along the river between Assi and Kedar Ghat. Its lanes lead down to Shivala Ghat and the smaller ghats nearby, which are generally calmer than the busy central stretch of Kashi's riverfront.

वक्रतुण्ड महाकाय सूर्यकोटि समप्रभ।

निर्विघ्नं कुरु मे देव सर्वकार्येषु सर्वदा॥

Traditional Ganesha prayer

Planning Your Puja in Shivala

Vehicles can reach the main road, but the last stretch to houses near the river is often on foot.
Steps down to the ghats can be steep, so plan for elderly relatives.
Mornings are peaceful for snan and sankalp before a home puja.
Water levels rise during the monsoon and some ghat steps may be under water.
Confirm with your guest house before planning a havan on the terrace.
Decorate the tulsi plant and prepare a small mandap of sugarcane.
Keep shringar items for Tulsi and a Shaligram or Krishna murti ready.
