Malayali Pandit in Bangalore
Kerala style rituals have their own order and customs, so share your family's practice and the date on WhatsApp. We will look for a Pandit who can follow Malayali customs as closely as possible and explain the ritual in Malayalam or English, and advise on the homa setup allowed in your apartment.
About Malayali vidhi
Ganapathi Homam is one of the most common rituals in Malayali homes, usually performed in the early morning before a housewarming, a new venture or a journey. The offerings commonly include coconut, jaggery, rice flakes and ghee, and the homam is closely associated with a smooth start.
The nilavilakku, a tall brass lamp, is lit in many homes every evening and placed at the centre of pujas and ceremonies. At Griha Pravesham, often called Palukachal, the family commonly enters with a lit nilavilakku, and milk is boiled in the new kitchen.
