Bhoomi Pooja (also known as Bhumi Puja) is a sacred Hindu ritual performed before the construction of a new house, building, or land development. It is done to honor Mother Earth (Bhoomi Devi) and seek her blessings for a strong, stable, and prosperous foundation. This ceremony purifies the land and removes negative energies, ensuring peace and harmony in the upcoming project.
Similarly, Vastu Pooja is performed to invoke positive energy according to Vastu Shastra principles. It ensures that the structure aligns with the five elements of nature — Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Space — promoting health, wealth, happiness, and spiritual balance for the residents. Together, Bhoomi Pooja and Vastu Pooja mark the auspicious start of a construction journey, bringing divine protection and success to the project.
