Bhat Puja at Mangalnath, Ujjain
Bhat Puja (Bhaat Puja) is the traditional Mangal shanti ritual performed at Shri Mangalnath Mandir, Ujjain, the revered birthplace of Mangal. Our pandits perform it by vidhi-vidhan, with clear guidance at every step.
Why Bhat Puja Is Performed
Mangal is described as a fiery planet. In Bhat Puja, cooked rice is offered over the Shivling worshipped as Mangalnath, and this cooling offering is believed to calm Mangal’s fiery influence. Devotees perform it for Mangal Dosh shanti, delays in marriage and for peace in family life.
