About Ashlesha Bali
Ashlesha Bali is a specialised Vedic ritual performed specifically to propitiate the Naga Devatas and pacify afflictions caused by Ashlesha nakshatra placement or Sarpa Dosha in the horoscope. Famous in the Kukke Subramanya tradition, this ritual is prescribed for individuals suffering from recurring skin diseases, fertility issues, delayed childbirth, miscarriage, children's health problems, and mysterious ailments that have no medical explanation. Gopuja brings authentic Kukke-style Ashlesha Bali to your home in Bangalore.
📅 When to perform
Performed on Panchami (5th tithi) of Shukla Paksha, especially Naga Panchami. Sundays and days ruled by Ashlesha, Rohini, or Mrigashira are auspicious. Also recommended on Ashlesha nakshatra day of each month. Pre-dawn or morning hours are preferred.
