Sarpa Dosha Santi Program

(26th, 27th & 28th May 2008)

To ameliorate the evil effects of violence towards creatures, reptiles

especially Serpents, (perpetrated by a person or his/her family members in this

birth or previous births), Sarpa Dosha Nivarana Puja is performed in Datta

Peetham annually. Those afflicted by chronic skin diseases, infertility,

frequent sickness are normally categorised by the elders as suffering from Sarpa

Dosha. Great Saints such as Sri Swamiji diagnose symptoms of Sarpa Dosha,

different from these visible signs and prescribe participation to devotees

occasionally. Devotees can decide for themselves, and choose the category of

participation as permitted by their convenience. They can also perform for their

relatives or friends in their absence.

This year, Sri Swamiji has decided that Naga Pratishtha ( Installation of a Naga

Devata Idol) would mark the Sarpa Dosha Shanti. Details of the programs are as

under.
