Goddess Kushmanda, the fourth form of Navadurga, symbolizes creation, abundance, and prosperity. She is depicted with eight arms, holding a kamandalu, bow, and other divine instruments, representing her power to remove obstacles and grant success. Goddess Kushmanda is worshipped for her ability to grant business success, career growth, and protection. Invoking her blessings through Kushmanda Homa is believed to attract success in business and career, as well as to provide protection from negative influences and obstacles.

At AstroBhava, here is the procedure we follow to perform Kushmanda Homa at our Ashram:

‍

• Prior to the homa, participants take a bath and wear clean, traditional attire suitable for the sacred ritual.

• The homa kunda is prepared and decorated with sacred symbols and flowers, creating a divine ambiance.

• We begin the homa by invoking the blessings of Lord Ganesha for the smooth conduct of the ritual.

• The sacred fire is lit in the homa kunda, symbolizing the illumination of success and the removal of obstacles.

• Our expert priests chant sacred mantras dedicated to Goddess Kushmanda with utmost devotion, invoking her divine presence.

• Offerings of ghee, herbs, seeds, and other sacred items are made into the fire while chanting the mantras, symbolizing the surrender of obstacles and the seeking of divine blessings for success and prosperity.

• Participants offer their own prayers and intentions to Goddess Kushmanda, seeking her blessings for business success, career growth, and obstacle removal.

• We meditate on the divine form of Goddess Kushmanda, visualizing her radiant presence and experiencing her transformative energy and grace.

• The homa concludes with final oblations and prayers, expressing gratitude to Goddess Kushmanda for her blessings and guidance.

• Sacred ash (vibhuti) from the homa kunda is distributed among the participants as a divine blessing.

• We provide participants with the sacred Kushmanda Yantra to help them maintain a continuous connection with her divine energy and blessings.

• A sattvic meal (prasadam) is offered to all participants, signifying nourishment of body and soul.

At AstroBhava, we believe that performing Kushmanda Homa with utmost devotion, sincerity, and adherence to traditional rituals can help individuals attract the blessings of Goddess Kushmanda for business success, career growth, and the removal of obstacles. By invoking her divine grace, participants can overcome challenges, achieve their goals, and experience prosperity and protection in their endeavors. We strive to create an immersive and transformative experience for all participants, allowing them to connect deeply with Goddess Kushmanda and receive her divine blessings for their success and well-being.
