Maa Shitala Devi is the revered goddess of healing, protection, and relief from contagious and seasonal diseases. Deeply worshipped in the Sanatan tradition, especially for the well-being of children and mothers, she is believed to cool fevers, cleanse karmic ailments, and provide lasting immunity from recurring illnesses. Devotees offer special Chadava (sacred offerings) such as Basi Bhog (cold food), Neem leaves, Turmeric water, Flowers, and Deepdaan to seek her divine intervention and protective grace.

At Kashi Archan, we make it possible for you to perform this sacred seva directly from Kashi (Varanasi)—the eternal city of dharma and devotion—even if you cannot travel here. Your name, gotra, and personal sankalp (intent) are included in the ritual, and the puja is conducted by experienced Vedic Brahmins at the ancient Maa Shitala Devi Mandir in Old Kashi, during auspicious morning muhurat.

The vibrations of this ritual are especially potent for families facing ongoing health challenges, seasonal fevers, or for newborn and maternal protection. With each offering, the negativity is cleansed, and the household receives healing energy from the compassionate form of Maa Shitala. Photos or videos are shared post-seva for divine connection and assurance.
