Ganapati Archana — Dodda Ganapathi Temple, Basavanagudi, Bengaluru
What This Remedy Does
Ganapati Archana at Dodda Ganapathi Temple, Basavanagudi, is the chanting of Ganesha's names before his large image carved from a single rock. The temple's priests perform it in your name, with up to four names and your gotra in the sankalp. You book online and receive the temple receipt or a confirmation on WhatsApp.
What is Ganapati Archana?
In South Indian temples the archana is the seva devotees offer most, and this one is made to Ganesha. The priest recites the deity's names, usually the 108 of the ashtottara, offering flowers or kumkum at each. At Basavanagudi the names are chanted to Dodda Ganapathi, the presiding Ganesha of the temple. With your name, gotra and birth star (nakshatra) in the sankalp, the archana becomes your own offering.
Why devotees book it
