Vastu Shanti Puja
A home or office consecration ceremony with sankalp, Ganesh puja, Vastu Purusha and Navgraha worship, directional offerings and havan, commonly paired with Griha Pravesh.
Vastu Shanti is a property-specific religious consecration and shanti ceremony. The common format is Ganesh puja, kalash, Navgraha worship, Vastu Purusha and directional deity worship, havan and purnahuti, with the scale varying by regional tradition. It is a religious rite, not an engineering one: a puja does not physically correct a structural defect, and architectural problems still need architectural fixes. Choose it for a new or renovated home or office, before first occupation, or when a Vastu concern has been raised.
