TIMING TO AVOID RAHU KAAL
It is a period considered inauspicious for starting new undertakings, including a puja — it shifts daily and by city because it's calculated from local sunrise and sunset times, not a fixed clock hour.

Rahu Kaal Period
01:09 PM - 02:29 PM
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is calculated dynamically every day based on the solar position in NOTTINGHAM. In Vedic astrology, Rahu Kaal is considered inauspicious for starting new auspicious activities or travels.
Choose how you'd like your Satyanarayan Puja performed:
At home: A pandit visits your Nottingham home, leads the full katha and aarti in person, and the family keeps its own pace through the evening.
Online: The pandit performs the complete puja on your behalf — typically at a temple while your family watches live via stream. He arranges the samagri himself, and prasad reaches your home afterward.
SATYANARAYAN PUJA AT HOME IN NOTTINGHAM
Nottingham's Indian community is spread across a mix of settings—detached family homes in West Bridgford and Beeston with room for a full puja gathering and smaller terraced or flat living nearer the city center and university, where a compact setup works better. Evenings draw in early through autumn and winter, so most families schedule the katha for late afternoon while there's still natural light for the initial rituals.
Dos and Don'ts
| Do have a clean, quiet room set aside — a living room or dining area works if a separate puja room isn't available. |
|---|
| Do keep the samagri checklist items ready before the pandit arrives, per Naman Puja's list. |
| Do let extended family join by video call if they can't be there in person. |
| Don't schedule the puja during Rahu Kaal — check the Timing to Avoid section above before booking a slot. |
| Don't leave the puja area mid-katha unless necessary; it's meant to be heard through in one sitting. |
REGIONAL CUSTOMS DISCLAIMER
Satyanarayan Puja is performed a little differently across communities and regions of origin — some families extend the katha reading, others keep a shorter version, and specific customs can vary by sampradaya. Naman Puja's pandits are happy to adapt the puja to your family's own tradition; just let us know when booking.

SAMAGRI AND PRASAD RESPONSIBILITY
At-home puja: You arrange the samagri locally, per the checklist Naman Puja sends ahead of your booking; the pandit brings only his own puja tools. Falcon Supermarket on Carlton Rd (135 Carlton Rd, NG3 2FN)—just down the road from the Hindu Temple & Community Centre—stocks fresh coconuts, mango leaves, incense, camphor, and ghee, and is the spot most families use.
Online puja: The pandit arranges the samagri himself as part of performing the proxy puja on your behalf, and prasad is delivered to your home once it's complete.
SERVICEABLE AREA
Naman Puja serves families across Nottingham and its surrounding suburbs, including West Bridgford, Wollaton, Beeston, and Carrington.
