Shanti Puja is a Hindu ritual performed to bring peace, harmony, and well-being into one’s life. The word "Shanti" means peace, and this puja is conducted to calm negative energies, remove obstacles, and restore balance in the environment and mind. It is often performed during times of personal distress, after an illness, before important life events, or to counter the effects of planetary doshas.
The puja involves Vedic chants, offerings to deities, and homa (fire ritual), invoking divine blessings for a peaceful and prosperous life.
