Overview

Vat Savitri Puja for families in Rathyatra

Vat Savitri Vrat is kept by married women in memory of Savitri, whose devotion and wisdom won back the life of her husband Satyavan from Yamaraj. The worship takes place beneath a banyan tree, which is revered for its long life and is associated with the Trimurti.

Rathyatra is one of the best-known crossings in central Varanasi, linking Sigra, Mahmoorganj and the roads towards the south of the city. Its name comes from the traditional Rath Yatra fair of Lord Jagannath held in the area each year.

वक्रतुण्ड महाकाय सूर्यकोटि समप्रभ।

निर्विघ्नं कुरु मे देव सर्वकार्येषु सर्वदा॥

Traditional Ganesha prayer

Planning Your Puja in Rathyatra

The crossing is congested for much of the day; early-morning slots are easiest.
During the Rath Yatra fair, expect road diversions and heavy crowds nearby.
Commercial buildings may restrict open flames, so check before a havan.
Parking can be limited near the crossing; arrange a drop-off point for the Pandit.
Keep raw cotton thread, a thali, fruits, soaked chana and water ready, or ask for samagri.
Plan an early morning start to avoid the heat.
