Sathyanarayana Puja is one of the most conducted ceremonies. It is usually done to seek the blessings of Lord Vishnu towards attaining a specific goal, as Thanksgiving after a goal is attained, or for the general well-being and prosperity of devotees.
Sathya means Truth. Narayan means the one that abides in everything and everybody. Therefore, this puja, or the worship of Sathyanarayan, a form of the Lord Vishnu, suggests that to overcome problems and difficulties in life caused either due to deeds of previous birth or similar factors can be overcome by worshipping the lord of Truth. Devoting time to the Truth and worshipping is a way of being truthful to oneself and being truthful to others. The more honest and truthful we come, the better we can worship the Lord Narayan in ourselves as well as others.
Sathyanarayana Puja can be performed on any auspicious day after consulting the almanac. But Poornima (Full Moon day) or Sankranti are most auspicious day for this puja. Our Temple observes this puja regularly on all Poornima days. All the devotees are requested to participate in this event and be blessed by Lord Sathyanarayana.
