Let me tell you a small story first.
One of my friend’s daughters — very bright girl, software job, well-cultured, everything. But her marriage just kept getting delayed. Not once, not twice, but five times the talks broke. Good proposals too. Something would always go wrong last minute. One day the boy’s side liked her, next week they suddenly vanished. No logic.
We tried everything. Met astrologers. Spoke to priests. Nothing helped.
Finally, an elderly acharya in Kumbakonam said something simple — “Do Navagraha Shanti Homa. Graha balam is not right for her now. So no matter how much you try, things won’t move. Let us first do shanti for the grahas. Then see.”
We listened. The homa was done in a small Shiva temple in Tamil Nadu. Not a big affair, but done with sincerity.
Exactly three months later, a marriage proposal came. This time it felt different. Calm. No back and forth. Today she is married, and settled happily in Sydney.
Sometimes, the Problem Is Not Outside. It’s in the Graha Dasha
People don’t always believe in this. And that’s okay. Belief comes from experience. But if you’ve seen things repeatedly not working out — job, marriage, health, peace — even when everything looks fine… maybe it’s time to check the grahas.
There are nine of them. Navagraha.
- Surya – self-confidence, authority
- Chandra – emotions, peace of mind
- Mangal – energy, aggression
- Budha – speech, logic
- Guru – wisdom, blessings
- Shukra – love, marriage
- Shani – karma, delays
- Rahu, Ketu – shadow planets, karmic obstacles
When even one of these is disturbed, life feels stuck. No matter how many degrees we earn.
Navagraha Shanti Homa – What It Does, Quietly
This homa is not some magic. It is a sincere prayer — to ask forgiveness from the grahas, to seek their blessings again.
It calms the energies. Gives relief. Realigns things.
For those going through Shani dasha, Sade Sati, Rahu Mahadasha, or those with multiple doshas — this homa helps a lot. Also good before important events — like a child’s marriage, starting a business, or buying a house.
In the homa, each graha is worshipped separately. Beeja mantras are chanted. Offerings are made into agni — sesame seeds, ghee, navadhanyam (9 grains), sandalwood, bilva leaves. Each item has a reason, told in the shastras.
How It’s Done – Simple and Powerful
I’m not a priest, but I’ve watched many homas. This one is done like this:
- First, Ganapati puja. Always first.
- Then Kalasha sthapana – divine energy is invited into sacred water.
- Each graha is invoked. Their japa mantras are chanted.
- Fire is lit. Offerings begin. One by one, for all 9 grahas.
- At the end, purnahuti, aarti, prasadam.
If it’s done sincerely, even once a year, it clears many invisible blocks.
What Happened After My Cousin Did It
One cousin of mine, working in Singapore — very sharp fellow — was facing strange problems. Every time he tried to switch jobs, something would go wrong. Either the offer would get pulled, or visa delays would come. He did this homa through JyotirGamaya. Not a temple near him, but in Tamil Nadu.
He got video, photos, and even kumkum and raksha in courier.
That same month, the blocked job offer came back. Not saying the homa caused it, but something shifted. Even his sleep improved. Mind became quiet.
Some Reflections from Devotees
One gentleman from New Jersey told me, “I was going through Rahu mahadasha. I couldn’t sleep properly, felt anxious, and had back-to-back job issues. I did Navagraha Shanti Homa twice in one year through JyotirGamaya. Things slowly turned. I can’t explain it in logic, but peace returned.”
A young mother in Singapore booked it for her son, who was failing exams despite hard work. After the homa, not only did his focus improve, but the boy himself became more cheerful and calm.
These are real people, real lives. And when you surrender with faith, the grahas also respond with grace.
Can You Do It from Abroad? Of Course.
That’s the beauty of today’s times. Earlier you had to travel to Kashi or Rameshwaram. Now, organisations like JyotirGamaya arrange everything for you.
- You give your name, nakshatra, gotra, and purpose.
- The homa is done by real, vaidika purohits, in temples — not in studio setups.
- You get videos, photos, and prasadam sent by courier.
You don’t have to do anything — except sit quietly, light a diya in your house on the homa day, and pray with your heart.
That’s more than enough.
Can NRIs Perform This Homa Without Being in India?
Yes. In fact, nowadays, many devotees from the US, UK, Singapore, UAE, Canada are getting this homa done through trusted organisations like JyotirGamaya.
Here’s how it works:
- You share your sankalpa details (name, birth time, place, gotra, issue faced)
- The homa is performed in a reputed South Indian temple by Vedic priests
- Full video recording, photos of puja, and prasadam are shared with you
- No shortcuts. No commercial gimmicks. Just authentic, traditional worship
This is a great blessing for those who live far from Bharat but still want to stay connected to their roots.
Last Bit — From One Elder to Another
We all want peace. Success is good. Money is good. But peace — that is real wealth.
Sometimes when peace goes missing, it is not always because of people. It is because of graha gati. Planets moving in tough ways.
For such times, Navagraha Shanti Homa is like cool rain after months of heat. It brings relief. Real relief. Not dramatic, but deep.
If you or someone in your family is struggling without any reason — try it. Once. Not with fear, but with shraddha.
Rest, leave to Bhagwan.
