The rite
Shatru Samhara Homa is a Vedic fire ritual associated with Lord Kartikeya (Subrahmanya) for courage, clarity, and protection from hostile forces—understood as external opposition or inner fear, not violence toward people. Bengaluru households arrange it when facing legal rivalry, workplace politics, or repeated obstruction after proper worldly steps are already taken. Pandit Mrityunjay Sharma performs the homa at your home with Subrahmanya mantras and ahuti. Samagri and safety notes for fire are sent on WhatsApp. You can name everyone who should be included in sankalp when you book, and ask for a shorter or longer format if elders are frail or children need a break.
Time at the house: 3–4 hours including homa
Pandit Mrityunjay Sharma does this at the house in Bengaluru. The fee is not printed on this page. It is sent on WhatsApp with the material list.
Why families book it
The tradition names ‘shatru’ as whatever blocks righteous action—sometimes envy, sometimes litigation, sometimes one’s own hesitation. The homa channels prayer into disciplined fire offering so the family focuses on dharma and steady effort.
This is worship, not a wish for harm to others. Pandit ji explains that ethical conduct and legal counsel still matter. No victory in court or workplace is guaranteed; the rite offers spiritual strength and correct agni karya in North Indian style. Kartikeya worship here is about courage and lawful perseverance—continue police complaints, HR processes, or mediation where those apply. In Bengaluru, many flats and villas use a terrace or wide balcony for homa when the housing society allows a short fire ritual; mention lift access and wind direction when you message on WhatsApp so Pandit Mrityunjay Sharma can plan a safe kund size. The material list is split between what you buy locally (flowers, fruits, cooking items) and what the acharya brings for mantra and fire. Fee and visit timing stay in the chat—this website does not store your form or quote prices.

Questions
Does this homa target specific people?
No ethical puja wishes harm. It addresses obstacles and fear; you still pursue lawful solutions in the world.
Is Kartikeya worship mandatory if we usually worship Shiva?
This homa is Skanda-focused. Many Shiva devotees still perform it because Subrahmanya is Shiva’s son; pandit ji will align brief Shiva vandana if you ask.
Can homa run on an apartment balcony?
Often yes with society permission and wind precautions. Describe your terrace or balcony on WhatsApp.
What diet is suggested after the homa?
Sattvic vegetarian food, avoiding alcohol and anger speech for the day. Details come with the prep list.
Is this the same as Sudarshana homa?
No. Sudarshana is Vishnu chakra; Shatru Samhara is Subrahmanya tradition. Book the homa your astrologer named.
How many pandits are needed?
Usually one experienced pandit for home homa; large counts may need a helper—confirmed when you book.
Where do you serve in Bengaluru?
Home visits within about 100 km of the city. Share your area and parking notes on WhatsApp.
What room setup helps Subrahmanya homa?
Clear a fire-safe corner, keep a bucket of water nearby, and inform neighbours briefly if smoke may drift. Pandit ji brings a compact kund suited to apartments when you describe your layout on WhatsApp.
