Sarpa Samskara, or Sarpa Dosha Parihara, is required when a family has intentionally or unintentionally harmed a snake in the past.
The snake is considered to hold a soul, similar to a human — and for appropriate deliverance of that soul, Naga Narayana Bali is strongly recommended. This affliction can be observed in a natal chart when different planets fall between Rahu and Ketu. Naga Prathista, Sarpa Samskara, or Sarpa Dosha Parihara is performed to absolve the family from the resulting ill effects, including sarpa shaap (snake curse) and Kaal Sarpa Dosha.
Naga Prathista and related Vaidik procedures are performed at the temple, guided by Guruji and his team, following traditional Vedic method.
They're related — Sarpa Dosha specifically addresses harm caused to a snake, while Kaal Sarp Dosha is the resulting planetary affliction. Guruji can clarify which applies to your family after reviewing your horoscope.
