Navgrah Shanti Puja
Authentic Navgrah Shanti Puja in Trimbakeshwar by Panditji
Trimbakeshwar is known all over the world as a top place for Vedic spiritual healing and peace for the planet. Many people visit here for the Rudrabhishek puja, but the Navgrah Shanti Puja is also very important for those trying to balance the energy of the nine planets. This special ceremony is done with the help of Pandit Rudra Shastri Guruji, a respected priest who has been performing traditional Vedic rituals for over 25 years. He knows a lot about how the planets move and the power of Vedic mantras, which helps devotees get the full spiritual benefits of this ancient practice.
What is Navgrah Dosh?
Navgrah Dosh means that one or more of the nine planets are in bad positions in a person‘s birth chart.
According to Vedic astrology, each person is influenced by the nine planets. When these planets are in weak or conflicting places, they create a problem called ‘dosh‘ or imbalance. This problem can cause difficulties in life, such as problems with health, wealth, or mental peace. Navgrah Shanti is a way to remove these bad influences through special prayers and offerings at a holy place like Trimbakeshwar.
What are the Types of Navgrah Dosh?
There are many types of Navgrah Dosh based on which planet is causing the issue.
Some common ones are Shani Dosh (Saturn) which causes delays and difficulties, Mangal Dosh (Mars) which often affects marriage and temper, and Rahu-Ketu Dosh which leads to sudden problems and confusion. There are also Grahan Dosh (Sun or Moon affected by Rahu/Ketu) and Guru Chandal Dosh (Jupiter affected by Rahu). Each of these needs special mantras and rituals to bring harmony back to the horoscope.

Myths About Navgrah Dosh
Some people wrongly think that Navgrah Dosh is a punishment from God or that the planets are trying to hurt them.
Vedic science says these doshas are signs of past karmic issues coming up now. Another wrong belief is that wearing a gemstone alone can fix the dosh. While gemstones help, the best way to remove the problem is through a traditional Shanti Puja done by a skilled priest like Pandit Rudra Shastri Guruji at a holy spot like Trimbakeshwar.
Effects of Navgrah Dosh
The effects of bad planetary positions can be wide and strong.
People may face unexpected delays in their careers, regular money loss, or ongoing conflicts with family. Physically, it can cause long–term health issues or low energy. Mentally, it may lead to anxiety, lack of decisions, and low confidence. Many people who do the Rudrabhishek puja in Trimbakeshwar also need to do Navgrah Shanti to deal with these planetary issues that stop their prayers from working properly.
Remedies for Navgrah Shanti (Nivaran)
The main way to deal with problems caused by the planets is through Navgrah Shanti Puja.
This is a special ritual that tries to calm all nine planets at once. It involves setting up a Navgrah Yantra, chanting certain mantras, and doing a Havan. Other ways to help include giving special items related to the planet that is causing problems. For example, black sesame is given for Saturn and pulses for Jupiter. Pandit Rudra Shastri Guruji gives personal advice on these remedies, making sure the Nivaran is done based on the person’s birth chart.
Duration of Navgrah Shanti Pooja
The duration of the Navgrah Shanti Puja typically ranges from 3 to 5 hours, depending on the complexity of the planetary afflictions being addressed. If the puja involves a higher count of mantra jaaps or is combined with other rituals like Rahu Ketu Shanti, it may take longer. Devotees are encouraged to participate in the entire process with patience and devotion. Panditji ensures that despite the length, the ritual is conducted with absolute Vedic precision, allowing the devotee to stay connected to the spiritual energy of the ceremony throughout its duration.
What To do While Performing Navgrah Shanti Pooja?
While the puja is happening, the person performing it should be clean both physically and mentally.
It is common to wear unstitched clothes like a dhoti or saree. During the chanting, one should sit straight and focus on the planets, asking for their blessings and forgiveness. It is also traditional to fast or eat only sattvic food on the day of the puja. Following Pandit Rudra Shastri Guruji’s instructions during the Sankalp and Havan is very important for the success of the ritual.
Navgrah Shanti Mantra
The core of the ritual is the Navgrah Stotram and the individual mantras for each planet. The general collective mantra for seeking peace from all planets is: Adityaya Somaya Mangalaya Budhaya Cha, Guru Shukra Shanibhyascha Rahave Ketave Namah. Each planet also has its own specific Beej Mantra, such as ‘Om Sham Shanaishcharaya Namah’ for Saturn. These mantras, when vibrated correctly by an authentic pandit with 25 years of experience, create a powerful shield of positive energy that helps in mitigating the malefic effects of the planets.
Samagri for Navgrah Shanti Pooja
The samagri or materials for this puja are diverse, as they must represent the unique energies of all nine planets. The list includes nine different types of grains (Navadhanya), different colored cloths (vastra) for each planet, sandalwood paste, incense, flowers, fruits, and pure ghee for the Havan. Specific woods (samidha) from trees like Arka, Palash, and Khadir are used in the sacred fire to invoke the specific planetary energies. At Trimbakeshwar Puja Panditji, we arrange for high-quality and pure samagri to ensure the ritual maintains its Vedic sanctity.
Navgrah Shanti Puja Cost
The cost of performing the Navgrah Shanti Puja in Trimbakeshwar depends on how big the ritual is and how many times the mantras are repeated (Jaap).
A simple version of the puja has a standard price, but if the ceremony includes more priests and a bigger Havan, the cost will be higher. We aim to give clear pricing so that every devotee can plan their visit properly. For a full breakdown of the costs and to book your preferred date, you can reach out directly to Pandit Rudra Shastri Guruji’s office. Our team will help you with all the arrangements.
Trimbakeshwar Navgrah Shanti Puja
Doing the Navgrah Shanti Puja in Trimbakeshwar is especially powerful because the place has the energy of the Jyotirlinga.
The vibrations here are said to make the effects of any Vedic ritual much stronger. For people who also plan to perform a Rudrabhishek puja in Trimbakeshwar, including a Navgrah Shanti helps with a complete spiritual cleansing. Being close to the holy Godavari river allows the final immersion rites to be done in a traditional way, which marks the successful ending of the planetary peace process.
The Navagraha Shanti Puja is a ritual that works for anyone who wants balance and progress in life.
It is not only for people with serious doshas but also for those who want to keep their current success and happiness. By respecting the nine planets, we connect our lives to the rhythm of the universe. This puja is like a spiritual shield that helps the devotee deal with unexpected problems and gives them the inner strength to face life‘s ups and downs calmly.
What are the benefits of doing the Navagraha Shanti Puja?
The Navagraha Shanti Puja offers many positive results.
It mainly brings calmness to the mind and balance to emotions by reducing the negative effects of harmful planets. It also helps in removing difficulties in areas like career growth, business success, and money matters. In families, it creates peace and helps fix old problems. One of the main benefits is better health and longer life. When planetary energies are in balance, the person feels more motivated and can achieve their goals in life and spirit more easily.
Nine Navagraha Temples
The main puja is done at our place in Trimbakeshwar.
However, the idea of the nine planets is also honored in many ancient temples across India. In the South, there are specific temples for each planet. But Trimbakeshwar is special because it allows all nine planetary energies to be addressed together. This is because Lord Shiva, known as Mahakaal, is the lord of time and fate. Doing the puja here with a qualified priest, known as a Tamrapatra Dhari pandit, gives similar spiritual benefits as visiting each planet‘s temple individually.
Navagraha Gems
Each planet is connected with a specific gem that matches its energy.
For instance, Ruby is for the Sun, Pearl for the Moon, and Blue Sapphire for Saturn. While these gems can be helpful, Pandit Rudra Shastri Guruji says they should only be worn after the Navgrah Shanti Puja and with proper astrological guidance. The puja cleanses the person’s energy, allowing them to benefit more from the gem’s positive energy. We can help you find the right gem based on your birth chart after the ritual.
