Which is the Ideal Time to Conduct Narayan Bali Puja in Trimbakeshwar?
As per our pandit ji Narayan Shashtri, Narayan Bali Puja comes with many benefits.
However, to acquire these benefits, one must perform it at a fortunate period. This auspicious period occurs when the lunar calendar includes Paush as an additional month, with Jupiter and Venus in specific positions. Devotees perform these rituals to bring good fortune.
In addition to this, the pandits have regarded Nakshatragundosh as an opportunity period for making decisions.
However, devotees should avoid performing this ritual during Dhanishtha Panchak and Tripad Nakshatra, as astrologers consider these periods inauspicious. People should begin performing this puja on the day of the 22nd lunar mansion if they aim to become parents.
Nonetheless, it is best to use the fifth and eleventh day of each lunar fortnight. On days with Hasta, Pushpa, Ashlesha, or Nakshatra – the ritual can start. Apart from this, Sunday, Monday, and Thursday are the lucky days to start the Nakshatra Shanti Puja. If someone wants to perform Naagbali exclusively, they should perform the rite on the fifth and ninth full moon days.
In addition, the new moon occurs on an auspicious day in the ninth lunar mansion.
People should take into account the auspicious time for Naagbali if they perform Narayan and Naagbali separately. In addition to this, one must consult with our Pandit to know which would be the best time to perform the puja. You can also refer to the chart above to identify the auspicious times throughout the day.

What is the Procedure of the Narayan Bali Puja ?
First day
On the very first day of the puja, the native has to take a bath at the Trimbakeshwar holy site before going to do the Narayan Nagbali puja. The process starts with setting up two pots with gold idols of Vaivasvat Yama and Shrivishnu. The priests then perform a 16-step ritual to worship these gold idols. During the puja, they spread the darbha grass toward the south and draw a line east of the pots using a blade of darbha grass. Next, the priests sprinkle water over the pots while chanting specific mantras under the guidance of the senior pandits.
Our pandits offer ten pindas made with honey and other ingredients while chanting the prescribed mantras. They then apply sandalwood paste to the pindas as a mark of worship. Finally, the pandits immerse the pindas in the river, completing the first day’s rituals. Offer ten pindas which have honey, ghee and sesame seeds on the darbhas amidst chanting of ‘काश्यपगोत्र अमुकप्रेत विष्णुदैवत अयं ते पिण्डः. Worship the pindas with the application of sandalwood paste and then absorb them in a river or a water-body. This is the rite of the first day.
Second day
On the second day of the ritual, the ceremonial worship of Lord Shiva is performed. It is performed in the middle of the day when Brahmans in odd numbers are invited. These brahmans perform the corpse in the shape of lord Shiva. However, the shradh or Tripindi Shradh Puja is performed without reciting any type of mantras. The native has to begin by washing the feet of the Brahmans and then feeding them. In addition to this, the Pindas are immersed and the Brahmans are provided with money following traditional devotion.
As per our Pandit ji Narayan Shashtri, the Brahmans can be bestowed with garments, jewellery, cow or even gold. After this, the native has to beg the Brahmans to present the corpse to Tilanjali. Next, the Brahmans haveto offer the corpse water that has been mixed with sesame seeds, tulsi leaves, and darbha. Furthermore, it is customary to perform the ceremonies of Nagbali and Narayana Bali together.
