By Acharya Vinod Shastri • 22 Jun 2026
Griha Pravesh marks the auspicious entry into a new home and is considered essential in Vedic tradition to ensure a positive start in the new space. The ceremony typically begins with selecting an auspicious date (muhurat) based on the family's horoscope.
On the day of the ceremony, the puja begins with Vastu Shanti to neutralize any energetic imbalances in the structure, followed by worship of the main door, kitchen (considered a vital energy center), and the central area of the home. A small havan is usually performed, followed by boiling milk on the stove as a symbol of prosperity.
Booking a Griha Pravesh puja with experienced pandits ensures that all rituals are followed correctly, giving your family the best start in your new home.
