The Satyanarayanã Pooja is a religious ritual worship of the Hindu god Vishnu. The pooja is described in the Skanda Purana, a medieval era Sanskrit text. According to Madhuri Yadlapati, the Satyanarayana Pooja is an archetypal example of how “the Hindu pooja facilitates the intimacy of devotional worship while enabling a humble sense of participating gratefully in a larger sacred world”.

Samoohika Sathyanarayana Pooja by SSPS in Dubai on 19th February The pooja narrates the Satyanarayana Katha (story), which dictates the various worldly and spiritual benefits the puja brings to performers. The Katha states how the deity Narayana vows to aid his devotees during Kali Yuga, the last of the four ages in Hindu cosmology, in particular the performers and attendees of the Satyanarayana Pooja. The Katha narrates that the performance of the pooja is in itself a promise to God, and recounts the plights of characters who either fail to complete the pooja or forget their promises.
