About this anushthan

Shani Shingnapur’s swayambhu black shila is worshipped without a roof, as Shanidev is believed to guard the entire village himself. It is the foremost kshetra for the remedy of Sade Sati, Dhaiya and Shani mahadasha.

The anushthan is timed for Shanivar during Krishna Paksha — the traditional window prescribed in the Shanti Ratnakar for Shani grah shanti.

Frequently asked before booking

No. Shastra permits sankalp by proxy — the paroksha vidhi — where a qualified pandit performs the ritual on your behalf using your name and gotra. Nothing needs to be posted to the temple; everything required for the vidhi is arranged there.

Ekal Seva covers one name, Parivar Seva up to four, and Sanyukt Seva up to eight. All names must share a household or immediate family relation, as the sankalp is offered as a single unit. Additional names beyond your package can be added at the confirmation call.

Temples occasionally shift timings for festival crowds or an unexpected closure. You are informed as soon as we know, and may either accept the revised muhurat or take a full refund. Your sankalp is never performed on a different tithi without your consent.

Yes. Enter their name and gotra in the sankalp step and your own contact details for delivery. The video clip and certificate are issued in their name, and prasad can be shipped directly to their address with a personal note.
