Kuladevata Pooja
Worship of the family's hereditary deity, traditionally observed at family milestones and at prescribed times of year, at the family shrine or ancestral temple.
A family crosses this threshold once. This is how it is crossed with intention rather than in a hurry.
The sequence differs by region and by family tradition — yours will be confirmed before the day. We describe what families usually observe; we never promise outcomes.
