Gandmool Puja

Gandmool Puja is an important Vedic ritual conducted when a child is born under certain Gandmool Nakshatras such as Ashwini, Ashlesha, Magha, Jyeshtha, Moola, Revati, and Dhanishta (specific padas). Birth under these nakshatras is traditionally believed to create Gandmool Dosh, which may bring challenges related to health, longevity, family harmony, and financial stability if not properly addressed.

The puja is usually performed on a specific day calculated according to the child’s birth nakshatra and planetary positions, often after the first 27 days or during an auspicious muhurta. The ritual includes Sankalp, Nakshatra Shanti, Navagraha Shanti, specific mantra chanting, offerings, and Havan. These sacred practices are meant to pacify the ruling planets of the nakshatra and neutralize any negative karmic influences associated with Gandmool Dosh.

Gandmool Puja is especially beneficial for safeguarding the child’s health, mental development, and future success. It also brings peace and protection to parents and family members, reducing fear, obstacles, and unexpected difficulties. When performed with faith and proper Vedic guidance, Gandmool Puja ensures a smooth, balanced, and prosperous life path for the child, along with harmony and happiness for the entire family.
