What it traditionally uses
- Puja thali
- Havan samagri (sacred wood, ghee and offerings for the fire)
- Dakshina for the officiating priest(s)
Who performs it
A Vedic priest engaged for the sankalp; the temple's own published package uses a panel of 32 shastris.
How long it runs
Approx. 2–3 hours
Where it belongs
The temple's own listed Mahamrityunjaya Jap Puja is a large panel package (₹1,00,000, 32 shastris, includes puja thali/dakshina/havan samagri/priest refreshments) — a different scale from a single-priest sankalp booked in a devotee's name. The temple's published details do not confirm a chanting count for this listing; confirm the exact service scope with the temple.
