    What are Pujas ?

    Puja is a religious ritual performed as per our ancient Vedic scripts. Puja is done to appease God, a Planet or any other Divine Entity. Puja is generally performed by learned Brahmins according to the Rules and guidelines laid in our ancient scripts. The Puja is generally performed for attaining certain wishes or for protection against any malefic effect. During Puja, the performer establishes a link between him and the deity by chanting certain Mantras for specific number of times and thereafter a Yagna is performed wherein various items are offered to the Deity with a request to bestow blessings. 

    It is very well known fact that whenever we, the human beings are in any type of trouble we look for some superior power or a force to help us and get rid us out of the problem. Now what can be a better solution for this than to resort to God Almighty who himself has created us. It is for this very purpose that our ancient sages developed a way to communicate and convey our problems to almighty God for getting rid of our problems or seek the divine blessings to save us from impending problems via certain specific procedures which are known as Puja and Homas.

    What are Online Pujas ?

    Now while day to day Puja can be done by any person on his own, Specific Pujas need to be performed by experienced and learned Purohits or Pujaris to get the required benefits since these Pujas need to be performed strictly as per the rituals and guidelines provided in our ancient scripts. Hence, it becomes utmost necessary to get access to a learned and experienced Brahmin along with his team of other Brahmins (most of the Pujas need atleast 3-5 Brahmins) to perform the required puja so that proper benefits can be derived out of it. Also there are many Pujas like Dosha Nivaran Pujas which should not be performed at Home and therefore a suitable Temple is also required for this purpose which may not be available at many places.

    Now, while the above two basic requirements can be fulfilled at some places but it becomes very difficult when someone is residing outside India and therefore performing a Puja in a proper way either becomes impossible or otherwise exorbitantly expensive. It is due to these problems that a concept of Online Pujas have evolved wherein a person is residing abroad can book a Puja to Online Puja service providers who gets the Puja performed on behalf of that person in a perfect way and for reasonable cost. Any Puja that had been ordered Online is performed by a team of Brahmins ( usually at least 3-5 Brahmins ). Out of them, one of the Brahmins takes a "Sankalp" in that persons name who has booked the Puja and then he performs all the recitals and rituals that were supposed to have been done by the person if he was himself physically present in the Puja. This means that the brahmin who has taken the sankalp virtually represents the person who has booked the puja during the entire puja process.

  • +
    Can the Online Pujas be deemed effective without the presence of the person who has ordered the Puja ?

    Please note that the online Pujas have already benefited a large number of people which is confirmed by the very fact that the same people have given repeated bookings for other Pujas after the initial order. We do not deny that if a person himself is present in the Puja, then it is the best option and it is for this reason that we always welcome the person who has booked the Puja to attend the Puja ceremony himself or atleast send one of his friends or relatives to attend the Puja. The fact that Online Pujas are also very beneficial and effective is further ascertained by large number of feedbacks and testimonials sent by our Esteemed clients. However, just like it is necessary to find a genuine learned Brahmin for performing Pujas at your end, similarly it is also necessary that you book an online Puja with a genuine and experienced Online Puja Service Providers who should have all the necessary infrastructure as well proper learned Brahmins with them.

  • +
    What is the proof of that the Puja has actually been performed and on the day it was scheduled ?

    We are religious minded people and we are deeply concerned regarding the problems of our clients who trust us for performing pujas on their behalf so that they can get a desired result as per their expectations. These Poojas are performed by our learned Brahmins / Pundits who are into this line since at least two generations. All the pujas are performed strictly according to the guidelines prescribed by our ancient sages and our vedic literature so that our clients can get a maximum benefit of them.

    All the pujas will be performed at Ahmedabad, India and the venue will be decided by our purohits depending upon the type of Puja. The date is normally within 3 days of the receipt of the order unless it calls for a specific date either due to our customers choice of due to the type of puja which requires to be performed on some specific tithi as per vedic shastras.

    Apart from this, we will send a small video of Puja performed of around 10 minutes which will contain important parts of puja ( Sankalp, Homam, Aarti etc ).

  • +
    How do we know that the puja is ONLY dedicated to us and it is not a combined Puja for a number of clients at the same time if they all have ordered the same puja ?

    Please note that each and every Puja performed by us is an individual Puja which means that it is performed for one single individual person who has booked the Puja. However sometimes, Names of his Family members may be recited during the Sankalp if he has specifically instructed us to do so. This means that suppose, a person has ordered a Lakshmi Narayan Puja and the same Puja has also been ordered by say 4 more clients of ours then all these Pujas will be performed individually.

  • +
    How Long does it takes to see the effects of the Puja after it has been performed ?

    Please note that normally, the positive effects of the Puja are experienced within 30-45 days after the Puja has been performed. However, there can be some variation in this period depending upon the individual's horoscope and transits of planets. Please note that as already explained earlier, Puja and Homam are done as a Prayer and request to the God Almighty for showering his Blessings on the person who has booked the Puja. However, the final outcome and the level of relief always remains in the hands of God Almighty.

    How Long it takes Prasadam of the Puja to reach me after the Puja has been performed ?

Yantra FAQ's

  • +
    What is Yantra ? What are Yantras ?

    Yantra literally means "instrument". A Yantra is a geometric design acting as a highly efficient tool for contemplation, concentration and meditation. Yantras carry spiritual significance, and point the user to higher levels of consciousness. The Yantra provides a focal point that is a window into the absolute. When the mind is concentrated on a single, simple object (in this case a Yantra), the mental distractions ceases. Eventually, the object is dropped when the mind can remain empty and silent without help. In the most advanced phases, it is possible to attain union with God by the geometric visualization of a Yantra.

  • +
    How do Yantras Work ?

    At the basis of yantra operation is something called "shape energy" or "form energy". The idea is that every shape emits a very specific frequency and energy pattern. Examples of old believes in shape energy are the yantras and mandalas of eastern philosophies, the star of David, the five pointed star (pentagon), the Christian cross, the pyramids and so on. Certain 'powers' are ascribed to the various shapes. Some have 'evil' or negative energies and some 'good' or positive energy, but in YANTRA only the benefic and harmonious energies are used. 

    When one focuses on a yantra, his mind is automatically "tuned in" by RESONANCE into the specific form energy of that yantra. The process of RESONANCE is then maintained and amplified. The yantra acts only as a "tune in" mechanism or a doorway. The subtle energy does not come from the yantra itself, but from the MACROCOSM. Basically yantras are described in the vedas as secret keys for establishing RESONANCE with the beneficial energies of the MACROCOSM. Very often the yantras can put us in contact with extremely elevated energies and entities, thereby providing invaluable help on the spiritual path. 

  • +
    But I dont see any moving parts or mechanism in it. It's just a piece of metal with some kind of geometrical design on it.

    It is similar to the fact that you dont see any frequencies of sight, sound, smell, touch and taste. You dont see gravity, you dont see a magnetic field. Still we are the most affected and controlled by those forces. In the same manner, yantras are big conductors of cosmic energy.

  • +
    How much time does it take to notice positive result ?

    It depends on the size of Yantras, material of Yantras & type of yantras. In most normal situations, yantras get fully activated within 40 days of installation and continue to increase energy thereafter.

  • +
    How does it work to help me ?

    Yantras have geometrical and mathemetical rhythm of natural forces to attract and absorb cosmic energy. Just like your TV or radio antenna works with the elements for better reception of frequency.

  • +
    I am still confused and skeptic about how a piece of metal can change my life ?

    The geometry etched on this metal piece has great power. Each yantra is equivalent in effect to a Sanskrit Mantra as Sanskrit is a unique language of the Gods that can be drawn into a yantra. So placing a yantra gives the potency of that mantra to you and your environment. 

  • +
    Does it need to be placed in a certain way ?
    Yes, direction of placement makes the impact. Every yantra works only when it is placed in the correct way. This applies to placing deity idols also.
  • +
    Does the size of yantra make any difference ?

    Yes, the bigger the yantra the more is the impact. For smaller rooms, small size is sufficient.

  • +
    Can I eat non-vegetarian food and smoke or drink while wearing yantra ?

    Yes, you can. Ancient texts do not mention any such taboo associated with yantras. 

  • +
    How to clean the Yantra ?

    Please note that normally, no liquid should be poured on the Yantras, since it can adversely affect the Yantra by reacting with the metal of the yantra. If at all necessary, then you may wash the Yantra with clean water and wipe it dry with a soft piece of cloth then place it with full faith at your worshipping place. Please note that No Soap, Cleaning solutions or any other kind of corrosive material should be used to clean the yantra, since it can de-foam the yantra plate and the colour of the Yantra.
