Goga Navami
A Rajput warrior-saint who controls snakes — Gogaji rides a blue horse with a lance in one hand and a serpent coiled on the other. His ninth-day rites in Bhadrapada Krishna Paksha centre on Gogamedi in Rajasthan, where devotees offer raw milk at snake holes and carry the peacock-feathered Goga-chhari staff.

About
The name Goga comes from guggal — a fruit Guru Gorakhnath is said to have given Queen Bachhal of the Chauhan clan, ending her childlessness. That Nath-yogi blessing is why Gogaji is worshipped by both Hindus and Muslims, who call him Jahar Pir (the manifest saint). His main shrine at Gogamedi in Hanumangarh, Rajasthan, is a domed tomb-like structure that local tradition links to Firoz Shah Tughlaq in the 14th century. The Bhadrapada timing is not accidental — it falls in monsoon, when snakes leave flooded burrows and farmers prepare to sow kharif crops. Jogi singers perform the Goga ki gatha, a ballad recounting his battle with his cousins Arjan and Surjan and his final ride into the earth on horseback. Offerings are simple village fare: churma, gulgule (jaggery fritters), and milk poured at snake holes in the fields.

Prarthana, Mantras & Vrat Katha

Every festival has its own prarthanas, stotras and vrat kathas. Reading or listening to them on the festival day is the simplest way to observe the tradition at home.

Inside the Dharmayana app you can listen to:

  • 1000+ prarthanas, mantras and stotras with clear audio
  • Festival-specific kathas — Lakshmi, Durga, Shiva, Ganesha, Krishna
  • Multilingual versions: Sanskrit, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and more

Browse the full collection of prarthanas or get the app to play them on the festival morning without ads.

Festival Date, Tithi & Muhurat

Hindu festivals are tied to a specific Tithi, not a fixed date — so the day shifts every year and even varies slightly across cities.

Open the Panchanga for the festival day to see the exact Tithi, Nakshatra, Yoga, Karana and Shubh Muhurat for pooja in your location.

The Dharmayana app keeps track of all upcoming festivals on the Hindu calendar and reminds you in advance.

Personalised Astrology Around Festivals

Festivals are also a good time to look at your kundali — many families plan sankalp, donations or new beginnings around them.

Inside the app you can:

  • Generate your personal Vedic kundali
  • Talk to a Jyotisha for guidance around career, relationships or health
  • Run kundali matching before fixing a marriage during the festival season

All of this is available inside the Dharmayana app — no fixed schedule, use it whenever you need it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Hindu festivals — like Diwali, Navratri, Mahashivaratri, Holi and Janmashtami — mark sacred moments tied to deities, seasons and lunar/solar cycles. Each festival has its own story, vrat, prarthana and rituals, and is timed using the Panchanga so the date moves slightly every year against the Gregorian calendar.
