Navagraha Temple

“Namah Suryaya Chandraya Mangalaya Budhaya cha
Guru Shukra Shanibhyascha Rahave Ketave Namaha”

Navagraha means nine planetary dieties. The nine celestial bodies are named Surya (Aditya, Sun), Chandra (Moon), Mangala (Mars), Budha (Mercury), Guru (Jupitor), Shukra (Venus), Shani (Saturn), Rahu and Ketu.

The Navagraha puja is performed to reduce the negative effect of nine planets and pacify them to get their benefits.
