Naga Devatha Temple & Pujas:
On the request of & for the benefit of devotees with Kalasarpa Dosham or Kuja Dosham ICCT has constructed Naga Devatha Temple. Performing Abhishekam, Ashta Naga Devatha puja, & Rahu-Ketu puja under the guidance of a qualified priest rectifies Kuja Dosham and Kalasarpa Dosham. A monthly schedule of Rahu-Ketu puja and Abhishekam will be performed, so that devotees can conveniently participate in the prayers to alleviate the astrological maladies, and lead peaceful and healthy lives.
Kuja Dosham:
At the time of one’s birth, Mars’s inauspicious location from the ascendant in Moon chart (2, 4, 7, 8, 12 houses) will result in Kuja Dosham. The Negative effects of Kuja Dosham are delayed or difficult marriages, failed engagements, the early untimely death of spouse, divorce and failed romance leading to the murder, marital infidelity & infertility.
Kalasarpa Dosham:
One acquires Kalasarpa Dosham by encouraging or participating in killing or hurting snakes or destroying their homes (ant hills) unnecessarily. It can also haunt the family for generations if one’s ancestors committed the above acts. Also if at the time of birth all the other planets are in between Rahu & Kethu, the Shraddha karmas are not done by the heirs, cremation is not done within 3 days of death, final rights are performed by persons other than the heirs, this dosham will haunt the family tree. This results in infertility, abortions, still births, infant mortality, birth defects, mental retardation, impotence, marital disharmony, divorce, premature death of spouse, serious illnesses like Aids & TB, Deafness, Middle ear infections, recurrent accidents & surgeries, heavy business losses, heavy debts leading to bankruptcy.
Remedy Performing Abhishekam & Ashta Naga Devatha Puja & Rahu Kala Puja by a qualified priest rectifies these doshas.
