🕉️ Satya Narayan Puja Calculator 🕉️

The most auspicious time is during Pradosh Kaal (evening twilight) on Purnima (full moon day). The puja should begin after sunset and be completed before the Purnima tithi ends. Morning hours after sunrise and before Rahu Kaal are also suitable alternatives. Our calculator automatically identifies these precise windows for your location.

Any Shukla Paksha Purnima is suitable. However, Purnima falling on a Thursday (Guruvar) or during auspicious nakshatras like Rohini, Pushya, or Shravana is considered especially powerful. The calculator's score system helps you identify the most favorable dates based on multiple panchanga factors.

Essentials include: Kalash (copper/clay pot), coconut with husk, banana leaves or clean red cloth, idol/picture of Lord Satya Narayan, kumkum, turmeric, sandalwood paste, incense, camphor, unbroken rice (akshat), betel leaves, fresh flowers, 5 types of fruits, panchamrit, tulsi leaves, and ingredients for sheera/halwa prasad. Use our interactive checklist tab to track your preparation.

Our calculations use precise astronomical algorithms based on planetary longitudes, the Lahiri ayanamsa, and location-specific sunrise/sunset data. The Purnima exact moment is computed through iterative refinement for accuracy within seconds. Timings adjust to your timezone automatically.
