Introduction to Bhoomi Pujan
Bhoomi Pujan is a sacred Vedic ritual performed before starting the construction of a house, office, temple, or any building. In Hindu tradition, land (Bhoomi) is considered a form of Mother Earth (Bhumi Devi), and performing this puja seeks her blessings before disturbing or altering the soil.
The ritual is also dedicated to Vastu Purusha, Lord Ganesha, and the Pancha Bhootas (five elements) to ensure that the construction is successful, free from obstacles, and filled with prosperity and positivity.
