Graha Pravesham

Graha Pravesh is a Hindu ceremony performed on the occasion of an individual’s first time entering their new home. The “Puja” or act of worship, is performed in various stages during the construction and entry of the home. Once the home is ready, the individual has to find an auspicious time to conduct the puja, in consultation with an astrologer or Hindu priest.
