Shree Satyanarayan Pooja is the worship dedicated to Lord Vishnu. Narad ji once, asked Lord Vishnu to tell the mantra or the way to end the miseries of the people on the Earth. In response, Lord Vishnu told that worshipping lord Satyanarayan will be the ultimate way of happiness and Moksha in the Kaliyuga.

Shree Satyanarayan Pooja is considered very holy and hence it is done during special events like child birth, birthdays, marriages, Greh Pravesh or on other happy occasions. People also conduct Satyanarayan Pooja when they are suffering from illness or even incurring losses or when they intend to fulfil their wishes.

Shree Satyanarayan Pooja can be performed on any day for any reason. It is not a Pooja confined to any festivities, but Purnima (full moon day) is considered specifically auspicious for this Pooja.

In this pooja, it is good to invite the friends, relatives, and neighbours and feed them fruits and sweets. Observe Fast (if possible not compulsory). It is good to decorate the front door with mango leaves.
