Chandi Homam Procedure: Step-by-Step Vidhanam
Chandi Homam Procedure
The step-by-step Chandi Homam vidhanam — from anujna and sankalpa to the Durga Saptashati parayanam and poornahuti.
Preparation
The yagam is set up with the homa kund and a beautifully decorated Devi kalasham. The purohits gather the prescribed samagri, and the family participates with devotion.
How Chandi Homam is performed
Anujna & Achamana
Seeking the Goddess’s permission and self-purification before the rituals begin.
Pranayama & Sankalpa
Breath control to focus the mind, and a vow stating the family’s names, gotram and the intention.
Ganapati Puja & Kalasha
Worship of Ganapati to remove obstacles, and installation of the Devi kalasham.
Durga Saptashati Parayanam
Recitation of all 700 verses of the Devi Mahatmyam — repeated 9, 101 or 1,001 times per the chosen scale.
The Homa
Offerings into the sacred fire with each mantra, invoking Chandika and the associated devatas.
Poornahuti
The concluding, complete offering signifying the fulfilment of the homam.
Aashirvachanam & prasadam
Blessings, distribution of prasadam and sprinkling of sanctified water for protection.
How long it takes
The duration depends on the scale. A Nava Chandi can be completed in a few hours, while Shata and Sahasra Chandi run across a day or several days with multiple purohits. Karishye arranges the purohits, timing and all samagri.
