About Shantidhara
Shantidhara is the Digambar ritual in which a pandit or shravak pours a continuous stream of pure water over the pratima of the Tirthankar — usually Bhagwan Shantinath or the mulnayak — while reciting the Shantidhara path for peace (shanti) for all beings. Families sponsor it on birthdays, anniversaries, punyatithis and before new beginnings.

Questions
How do I book Shantidhara online in my name?
Choose the option and your preferred temple or date, enter the name(s) for the sankalp and your WhatsApp number, and send the request. We confirm the date with the temple, then send payment details. After the Shantidhara is performed you receive the video with your sankalp and an Anumodana Patra.
Which Jain tradition performs Shantidhara?
Digambar. It is performed in Digambar temples.
Will I receive prasad?
No. In Jain practice, dravya offered to Bhagwan becomes nirmalya and is not taken back or eaten, so we do not post prasad. You receive the video of the puja with your sankalp, photos, and an Anumodana Patra.
Where does my money go?
The puja amount is passed to the temple or institution for that seva only — temple pujas to the temple trust, jeevdaya to the panjrapole, sadharmik bhakti to the bhojanshala, gyan daan to scripture printing. Any service fee for coordination and video is shown separately before you pay.
Can Jains living abroad book a puja in India?
Yes. Families in the USA, UK, Canada, the Gulf, Africa and Australia book sevas for birthdays, punyatithis and parvas. We send an international payment link by email, and the video reaches you wherever you are.
Can I book on a tithi rather than a date?
Yes — many families observe a punyatithi or janma tithi by the Jain calendar. Enter the tithi when booking and we will find its date in the panchang with the temple.
