Panch Grah Jaap - Ujjain

About this puja

Mantra jaap for five chosen planets, chanted by 10 pandits at Pardeshwar Mahadev Temple, Ujjain.

Panch Grah Jaap is a chanting ritual for five of the Navagrahas. It is traditionally done to ease the harsh effects of those planets and bring peace and balance. It is mostly chosen by people with planetary doshas in their kundli. The jaap is held at Pardeshwar Mahadev Temple, Ujjain. The pandit first takes a Sankalp in the devotee's name. The Navagraha mantras are chanted next. Then each of the five chosen planets gets its own jaap with the right mantra and a mala. Each planet has a fixed count of repetitions, and 10 pandits perform them.
