Navagraha Shanti

All nine grahas honoured in one anushthan. Each beej mantra chanted to its own count, the whole planetary court set at peace with the household.

Navagraha Shanti

Overview

What is this anushthan?

Navagraha Shanti is the great jap anushthan of all nine grahas together, each honoured with its own beej mantra chanted to its own sankhya. It is the most complete of the graha remedies, sought when a chart carries several afflictions rather than one, when an astrologer prescribes a general planetary shanti, or when a family wishes to set the whole planetary court at peace at once, at a new beginning, an annual observance, or before a major undertaking. The parampara holds that the nine grahas touch every part of a life, and their combined shanti is the widest net a household can cast: Surya and Chandra, Mangal, Budha, Guru, Shukra and Shani, and the two shadows Rahu and Ketu, each invoked and honoured in its ordained order. Because it carries all nine counts, it is a substantial anushthan, completed by the Narwar pandit team across the days it requires. At SiddhiStar the anushthan is performed by lineage-trained pandits in the shastriya krama, with your name and gotra carried into the sankalp. The count is chosen at booking, and where a devotee wishes to do more, the parampara allows the anushthan to be raised to a sawa lakh. The rite is sealed by the dashansh hawan, and where hawan cannot be arranged, additional jap is completed in its place.
SiddhiStar Note
Some charts are troubled by one graha; some carry a weather system. When several planets press at once and no single remedy fits, the parampara does not choose among them. It honours all nine, in the order the tradition fixed, each with its own mantra and its own count, until the whole court, from the sun to the shadows, is set at peace with the household. It is the largest of the graha anushthans, and the most complete.

Ritual Flow

Understanding the sequence helps you participate meaningfully rather than merely observe.

Opening sequence

1

Pavitrikaran & Achaman

The pandit and the jaap sthal are purified with sacred water, and achaman is taken, before the anushthan begins.

2

Tilak, Bhasma & Mala Dharan

Tilak is applied, bhasma marked, and the jap mala worn, in the discipline the parampara asks of the one who chants.

3

Dik Rakshan

Yellow mustard is offered to the four directions to secure the jaap sthal.

This flow follows the jap-anushthan krama of the parampara. The rite is performed at your home, in the hybrid model, or live from Narwar Dham.
