Performed by Veedamurthy Nithyananda Gokhale
Chandika Homa, also known as Devi Chandika Homa, is one of the most powerful and sacred fire rituals in the Vedic tradition. It is dedicated to Goddess Chandika (an intense and protective form of Durga), who is revered as the embodiment of divine strength, protection, and victory over negativity.
This homa is traditionally performed to overcome intense obstacles, remove negative influences, and seek divine blessings for protection, prosperity, and spiritual empowerment. Veedamurthy Nithyananda Gokhale, a respected Vedic priest and astrologer, performs the Chandika Homa with deep devotion and complete adherence to scriptural methods, invoking the blessings of the Divine Mother with precise mantras and rituals.
Purpose and Benefits of Chandika Homa
Chandika Homa is especially powerful during times of major personal or spiritual transformation. It is believed to invoke the grace of Goddess Durga in her fierce and protective form, helping devotees break through limitations and restore inner strength.
Key benefits of performing Chandika Homa include:
Protection from negative energies and spiritual disturbances
Relief from intense planetary doshas or karmic blocks
Courage, confidence, and clarity in challenging times
Divine support for health, success, and family harmony
Spiritual cleansing and empowerment
This homa is often recommended during Navaratri, Amavasya (new moon), or when individuals feel they are going through unusually difficult periods in life—emotionally, spiritually, or materially.
How Chandika Homa is Performed
Veedamurthy Nithyananda Gokhale follows a traditional and detailed Vedic format to perform this sacred ritual:
Sankalpa – The devotee’s name, nakshatra, and the purpose of the homa are clearly stated at the beginning.
Ganapathi Puja and Navagraha Puja – These foundational pujas are performed to remove obstacles and invoke planetary harmony.
Durga Saptashati Parayana – Verses from the Devi Mahatmya (700 Slokas) are chanted to invoke the energy of Goddess Chandika.
Chandika Homa – Offerings are made into the sacred fire with each mantra chanted from the Durga Saptashati, invoking powerful energies of transformation and protection.
Purnahuti – The final offering, made with devotion, symbolizes the culmination of the ritual and the devotee’s surrender to the Divine Mother.
Ashirvada and Prasadam – Blessings are given to participants along with prasadam, marking the ritual’s sacred conclusion.
Each step is performed with precision, discipline, and devotion to ensure that the spiritual energy of the ritual is fully activated.
