Significance

Vastu Shastra regards a home as a space presided over by the Vastu Purush and the guardian deities of the directions. Where a layout departs from Vastu principles and cannot easily be rebuilt, families traditionally perform Vastu Dosh Nivaran — a Vastu Shanti puja honouring the Vastu Purush, the Navagrahas and the directional deities, concluded with havan — to pray for peace and balance in the space.

Vidhi: the steps of the puja

The order of the ritual. This is a usual outline; agree the details with the pandit for your family's tradition.

  1. Sankalp and Ganesh puja

  2. Kalash sthapana and punyahavachan (purification)

  3. Navagraha puja

  4. Vastu mandal and Vastu Purush puja with the directional deities

  5. Vastu Shanti havan

  6. Aarti and sprinkling of sanctified water through the home

Samagri: what is needed

We can arrange the samagri listed below, or your family can bring its own. On WhatsApp, settle which items we bring and which you keep ready.

  • Kalash with coconut and mango leaves
  • Vastu Purush pratima or Vastu yantra
  • Coloured akshat and grains for the Vastu mandal
  • Panchgavya and gangajal for purification
  • Havan samagri, samidha and ghee

Before the day, settle these details

Bring these details to the conversation so the arrangements fit your family.

  • Share the type of property and what prompted the puja — a renovation, a move or advice you received.
  • Discuss which rooms or areas the family wants included, and where the havan can be set up.
  • Confirm a date and muhurat that suits everyone in the household.
