Asked, answered.
०१What is Gandmool nakshatra?
Six nakshatras — Ashwini, Ashlesha, Magha, Jyeshtha, Mool and Revati — fall at the junctions of the zodiac signs and are called Gandmool. A birth in them is traditionally followed by a shanti puja.
०२When should Mool shanti be done?
Ideally on the 27th day after birth, when the same nakshatra returns, but it can be done at any later time, including for adults. Guruji fixes a suitable day.
०३Do the parents attend?
Yes. Traditionally both parents sit for the puja with the child, and part of the ritual is for the parents themselves.
०४What does the puja cost?
Guruji tells each family the dakshina and the samagri arrangements on the call, after the free Kundali check, so there are no surprises on the day.
