Dussehra Pooja
दशहरा पूजा
The rite
Dussehra or Vijayadashami puja closes Navratri with shastra puja, victory remembrance, and sometimes ayudha puja for tools and laptops. Pandit Mrityunjay Sharma fits the rite into a Bengaluru morning before Ravan effigy events or a quiet home observance when children are too young for crowds.
Time at the house: About 1 to 1.5 hours
Pandit Mrityunjay Sharma performs this as a home visit in Bengaluru. Share your area and preferred slot on WhatsApp; the samagri list is sent before the day. This page does not list fees or promise worldly results.
