Plan DarshanExplore traditional puja services and arrange your ritual with local assistance.

A shanti puja families traditionally arrange when a birth chart shows the Kaal Sarp yoga. In Ujjain it is usually performed on the bank of the Shipra.
Ram Ghat, on the Shipra

Performed in remembrance of the ancestors, with tarpan and pind offered at the river. Families most often arrange it during Pitru Paksha or on an ancestor’s tithi.
The ghats of the Shipra

Customarily performed at Mangalnath, which tradition holds to be the birthplace of Mangal. Families commonly arrange it before a marriage.
Mangalnath Mandir, Ujjain

An offering made to the guardian of the city at his temple on the Shipra. The custom of offering madira here is found at very few other shrines.
Kal Bhairav Mandir, Bhairavgarh

The Maha Mrityunjaya mantra recited in jaap with a havan, traditionally undertaken for health and long life. The number of recitations is settled with the pandit beforehand.
Near Mahakaleshwar

A traditional observance taken up by those seeking release from debts and obligations, made with a sankalp and a havan.

Morning
The two black deep stambhs in the courtyard, each set with hundreds of lamps, are lit on festival evenings.

Late morning
The oldest bathing ghat in the city, and where most riverside rites are performed.

Midday
The guardian of the city, at Bhairavgarh, where the offering of madira is a custom found at very few other shrines.

Afternoon
On the high bank above the river, and by tradition a place from which the sky was observed.

Evening
An old shrine across the Shipra, usually the quietest stop of the day and a good place to end.

See the whole day, the six temples and every fare

One day, two or three, priced per person and inclusive of the car, the darshan and the stay. Nothing is paid until we have confirmed your dates.

1 day
For pilgrims with one day, who want the major temples and nothing rushed past.

All three packages, with day-by-day itineraries
Prices are per person and exclude GST. The exact rate depends on your dates, the vehicle and how many of you there are, and is confirmed with you before anything is held.
Enquire about accommodation near Mahakaleshwar Temple and across the city. Where you sleep decides whether a four o’clock Bhasma Aarti is a short walk or a scramble.

Walking distance to the temple gates
The only side of the city from which a four o’clock Bhasma Aarti is a short walk rather than a scramble for a taxi.

Round tripAbout 140 km each way
The second jyotirlinga of Madhya Pradesh, on an island in the Narmada. The driver waits all day.

Round tripAbout 130 km each way
The Baglamukhi shrine on the Lakhundar, where havan is performed through the day. The car waits for the puja.

One wayAbout 55 km
Met at arrivals with a name board and driven to your hotel. The flight is watched, so a delay costs nothing.
Fares are for the whole car in the sedan class, not per seat, and include the driver, fuel, tolls and parking. A larger car costs more, and every route page shows all five.

The puja, the room, the car and the darshan day are arranged on one thread by one person, instead of four strangers who do not know what the others promised.
Which gate is moving, which lane floods in the monsoon, which pandit is free on an amavasya: that is knowledge you only have if you live here.
No account, no portal, no payment page. A name, a number and a date is enough to begin, and the rest happens on WhatsApp.
If a queue stalls or a train runs late, someone in the city rearranges the rest of the day around it.
What we end up explaining on WhatsApp every week, written down properly.

The one thing most families plan their whole Ujjain trip around, and the one thing that cannot be arranged at the gate. How the booking works, and what the morning asks of you.
