Pujari

A Pujari is a Hindu priest who performs religious rituals and ceremonies at temples or for individuals. They conduct pujas—prayer rituals—offer prayers, chants, and offerings to deities, and ensure that the spiritual practices are carried out correctly. Pujaris often have specialized knowledge of scriptures, traditions, and the proper procedures to honor gods and goddesses. Their role helps devotees connect with the divine, maintain religious traditions, and foster spiritual well-being. They may also be responsible for organizing festivals and guiding worshipers in their devotional practices.
