know about Gand Mool Shanti Puja

Gand Mool Shanti Puja is a powerful Vedic ritual performed to nullify the negative effects of being born under certain specific nakshatras (constellations) known as Gand Mool Nakshatras. According to Vedic astrology, a child born under these nakshatras may face challenges or may unintentionally cause problems for the family, unless proper shanti (peace) rituals are performed.

What is Gand Mool Dosh?

There are 27 nakshatras in Vedic astrology. Out of these, 6 nakshatras fall under the Gand Mool category:

  • Ashwini
  • Ashlesha
  • Magha
  • Jyeshtha
  • Moola
  • Revati

These nakshatras are ruled by Mercury and Ketu, which can cause mental unrest, health issues, financial instability, or delay in development if their dosha is not pacified with the right rituals.

Why is Gand Mool Shanti Puja Important?

Performing the Gand Mool Shanti Puja brings:

  • Peace and stability in the life of the child
  • Protection from unexpected problems or accidents
  • Improvement in child’s health and growth
  • Harmony in family relationships
  • Relief from astrological imbalances caused by nakshatra dosha

This puja is typically recommended to be performed after 27 days of the child's birth, when the same nakshatra occurs again (nakshatra punarvasu).
