Kuchadosha Shanthi Puja is a Hindu ritual performed to alleviate the effects of Kuchadosha (a dosha or planetary affliction) in an individual's horoscope. The dosha occurs when there are unfavorable planetary positions, particularly in the Kundali (birth chart), which can lead to obstacles, health issues, or personal challenges. This puja aims to mitigate the negative impact of Kuchadosha and restore peace and harmony in life.
The puja involves offering prayers, chanting specific mantras, and performing rituals to invoke the blessings of the planets. Offerings such as fruits, flowers, and sacred items are presented to the deities. The primary focus is on seeking divine intervention for the removal of obstacles and to bring about well-being, prosperity, and spiritual growth.
Kuchadosha Shanthi Puja is often conducted during auspicious times or when individuals experience persistent difficulties. It helps reduce the malefic effects of unfavorable planetary influences and brings protection, success, and stability in life.
