Ghata Sthapana 2009 – Kalasha Sthapana in 2009 during Durga Pooja

Ghata Sthapana or Kalash Sthapana or Kalasha Puja is the first and foremost event during Durga Puja. In 2009, the date of Ghat Sthapana in Durga Navratri Puja is September 19. On September 19, with Kalsha Puja, Durga Navratri Mahotsav will be started for the year – 2009.

How to do Kalash Puja for Durga Navaratri Pooja?

Kalash is prepared with a copper or bronze pot and pour pure water in it. Place some akshata, flowers and mango leaves in the water. Decorate the Kalash or ghata with turmeric power, vermilion powder, and sandalwood powder. Draw Swastika or Om or Trishul on the Kalasham.

Recite the mantra for Kalasham and install the kalasha at Durga pooja place or pandal. In some places, Kalasha is installed and kalash puja is performed everyday during Navratri. In some places, Kalash puja is performed on the first day or on Ashwin Padyami day and the Kalasha remains unmoved till the end of the pooja on Mahanavami or Vijaya Dashami.

In some places, on Mahalaya Amavasya, the day before Kalasha Sthapana, Brahmin Santarpana is done.
