🛕 Ayudha Puja – Vehicle Blessing Note
Ayudha Puja is an important ritual observed during the Navaratri festival, especially on Maha Navami. On this day, tools, machinery, books, and vehicles are worshipped to seek divine protection, safety, and success. For many devotees, it is considered highly auspicious to purchase, bless, or inaugurate a new vehicle on Ayudha Puja.
Common Ayudha Puja vehicle rituals include:
- Cleaning the vehicle thoroughly and decorating it with flowers
- Applying turmeric, kumkum, and sandalwood paste
- Placing flowers, fruits, and coconuts near the vehicle
- Performing simple pooja or visiting a nearby temple
- Avoiding vehicle use until the pooja is completed
Blessing a vehicle on Ayudha Puja is believed to:
- Ensure accident-free travel
- Remove obstacles and negative energies
- Bring long-term safety and smooth performance
📌 Note: Even if the vehicle is purchased on an auspicious muhurtham earlier, many people prefer performing the first pooja or first drive on Ayudha Puja for added spiritual significance.
