Shukra Graha Shanti

Overview

What is this anushthan?

Shukra Graha Shanti is the jap anushthan of Shukra Dev, the guru of the asuras and the graha the parampara holds as the lord of marriage, love, comfort, beauty and the arts. It is sought for harmony in married life, for the comforts and ease a household seeks, for success in the arts and creative work, and when an astrologer reads a weak or afflicted Shukra in the chart. The parampara links Shukra to conjugal happiness, to refinement and pleasure, and to the material graces of life. His day is Friday, his colour white and the finer shades, and his shanti is a household's prayer for sweetness and harmony in relationship and home. 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
“Shukra governs the part of life the sterner grahas overlook: the ease of a happy marriage, the beauty a home gathers around itself, the pleasure of art and comfort. When a marriage loses its warmth, when the graces of life feel withheld, the parampara turns to Venus. His shanti is a prayer for harmony, the household asking not for more but for sweeter.”

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.
