About the Vidhi

After a child is born, the family traditionally observes a period of sutak, which ends with a purification ceremony. In a shuddhi puja the pandit performs Ganesh puja and kalash pujan, chants the punyahavachan mantras, and sprinkles purified water through the entire house. This puja can only be conducted with a pandit's help. The Jal Pujan is the worship of water, and the mother takes part in it with the family, as per your family's custom. The exact day and steps vary from family to family, so the pandit follows your tradition.
