Aarati

Aarati is the light-offering sung at the close of worship. Here you can read the aartis families know by heart — by deity, with the lyrics and their meaning — so you can sing along and understand the words, with Purohit to explain the ritual.

What you can do

  • Read aarti lyrics for major deities — Ganesh, Lakshmi, Shiva, Durga, and more.
  • See the meaning alongside the words, not just the transliteration.
  • Browse by deity to find the aarti for today's puja or festival.
  • Ask Purohit how and when an aarti fits into the ritual.

An aarti is sung, not just read, and knowing what the words mean changes how it feels to sing them. The collection pairs each aarti with its meaning and connects it to the deity and occasion, so the Purohit flow — Panchang, festival, puja, aarti — stays in one place.

How it works

  1. 1. Pick a deity

    Browse aartis by deity to find the one for your puja or festival.

  2. 2. Read with meaning

    Follow the lyrics with their translation so the words make sense.

  3. 3. Ask Purohit

    Check how and when the aarti fits into the ritual.

The words, with their meaning

Every aarti pairs the lyrics with a plain-language meaning, so singing along is also understanding — not just sounding out unfamiliar lines.

Part of the Purohit flow

Aarati sits beside Panchang, Muhurat, and the festival calendar. When Purohit guides a puja or festival, the matching aarti is a tap away.
