Description

the Navgraha Samidha or Navgraha Lakdi is used in various religious ceremonies, particularly in Homas (fire rituals) and Yajnas (sacrificial rituals). These rituals are performed to appease the nine celestial bodies or planets (Navgrahas) which are believed to have a profound influence on human lives and the course of events. Each planet is associated with specific woods and offerings, which are burned in the sacred fire to invoke the blessings and mitigate the malefic effects of these planets.
