Bangalore Pandit

Bangalore Pandit is based at Kasturba Road 33. This is right in a very central part of the city, not too far from the park and the main administrative buildings. We have been working from this location for many years now. People usually get in touch with us when they have a family function, a housewarming, or some other religious event where they need a pandit to help with the rituals. It’s a very traditional kind of work, but we run it in a simple, organized way. Our office on Kasturba Road is where we keep all our schedules and talk to families about what they need. We don’t have a big staff, just a few of us who know the traditions and the requirements for different ceremonies. Bangalore is a fast-moving city, but people still want to keep their traditions alive, so that keeps us pretty busy throughout the year. We don't have a fancy shopfront; it's more of a place for coordination. Sometimes we are out at someone's house at five in the morning for a ceremony, and other times we are back at number 33 planning for the next week. We try to be helpful and explain things simply to families who might not know all the details of a particular puja. It’s meaningful work for us, and being on Kasturba Road makes it easy for people from different parts of town to reach us. We just do our bit to help people.
