Guru Ji, your method for performing SATYANARAYANJI puja at my house was very excellent. Most thing I liked was your explanation for each step of puja start was outstanding. I highly recommend to everyone for services. I’ve never such wonderful SATYANARAYAN pooja (Katha) in my life. I give you 5-star rating. Great job!
We would recommend Pundit Navin Ji to anyone looking to do a fusion wedding! He took the time (twice!) to walk through things with us and discuss what is needed and what is okay with us for our day. We felt it was very personalized. Our crowd was mixed between Indian and American groups- both groups enjoyed the time and were able to follow along. We thank him for his time and help making our day special.
Parag ji helped us perform an online Sri Lakshmi Narayan and Navagraha pooja. He is extremely knowledgeable in the procedures and rituals of the pooja. He properly explained the steps of the pooja and the meaning behind the rituals. He is very patient and kind person. We had a wonderful experience and I highly recommend Parag ji for Hindu pooja services.
Our priest Parag was amazing, both our family and friends were very impressed. My marriage was intercultural, my husband is white and I am indian. It was just wonderful how priest Parag met with us before the wedding, did our pre-wedding ceremony and the wedding. All along he explained each step so eloquently. What we most appreciated was how knowledgeable and sincere he was throughout wedding process. He made the wedding ceremony so special and memorable for us. I would highly recommend priest Parag to family and friends.
He is a very good priest. He will understand the need of the client . Very affordable and humble
SATYANARAYANJI katha and Pooja you performed was great. The kids said that you did a great job explaining the meaning behind things and answering any questions they had. Also it was great that you were patient and were not trying to speed through just to finish. Overall it was fantastic.
We have known Parag Ji for many years now, he has performed many Pujas for us and our friends inperson and most recently he performed an online Sri Lakshmi Narayan and Navagrah a pooja. He is extremely knowledgeable in the procedures and rituals of the pooja. He properly explained the steps of the pooja and the meaning behind the rituals. He is very patient and kind person.

“Priest Navin Dave, did a wonderful reading to me which has accurate according to past life situations. He also guided me on how to fix situations to move forward on a positive note and what to look out for. Thank you.“
Hi Navin! Thank you again for officiating our wedding ceremony. Review: 5 out of 5 stars We thought the overall ceremony was fantastic. We thought you balanced the humor, the religious aspects, and numerous activities expertly. People thought you made a really great effort in getting to know Megan and me and really felt it was so special engaging with our respective families. We are so appreciative of you helping get our ceremony targeted to the important activities and keeping within our timeline. Megan's parents were extremely appreciative of all you did and making our day so special. We can't thank you enough for stepping in after our former priest was unresponsive and frankly, we're glad it happened this way. Should anyone be looking for a priest, you will be at the top of our list. Please let us know if there are any additional details you'd like us to provide or if there's any additional reviews you'd like us to fill out. Thank you again!
Navinbhai performed Marriage rituals for my son who has married a white American girl. We and my son's in-laws are very happy with his performance. He did everything with cheerful and pleasant manner. Also he is very good at English and finished ceremony within time and all guests were really enjoying the ceremony. I would definitely recommend him. Here I will take an opportunity to thank him.
I have worked with this priest and he is really nice ! Thanks
Pandit Navinji did our Virtual Grih Pravesh for my new home. He explained pooja so well that we all understood what we did. The friends and family that were on Zoom were really impressed with Navin ji's Online Pooja. I'm glad that I've a good Panditji for my all occasions. He is our family priest going forward.
Paragbhai Dave did a great job performing my daughter's destination wedding in April 2016 at Playa Del Carmen!
Mr. Dave did an amazing job at our vastu puja. He was so patient and explained everything every step of the way so that my children could understand the rituals. He even built in breaks to give my 7 year old time to stretch and take 5 minute breaks since it was a longer puja. Highly recommend, let him know exactly what you are looking for and he will accommodate your needs.
Parag made my dream wedding come true! I am so lucky to have the youngest Hindu priest by my side. He has great attention to detail. He would tell both my family and my wife’s family all the details that go into a Hindu wedding, which is so helpful for me since I am Indian-American. He is also great at answering his phone. Every question I had, he would answer every time I called him. I thank him from the bottom of my heart for making my wedding the best thing that has ever happened to me.
Times do change, Circumstances do change but our core values, principles and faith does not. Paragji recently facilitated and conducted on-line Puja as we are based in Middle-East and our two sons are in USA. Such a purifying and enlightening experience at our own home - far away and yet so close.
First I was reluctant to book an Online Puja. After communicating several times with Priest Dave ji, I felt comfortable. Priest Dave ji did an excellent Virtual Grih Pravesh Puja. Not only us, but our other friends that were watching our Grih Pravesh Puja online were astonished by his Virtual Puja service. Till Puja is over, we didn't realize that he is physically not with us. Thanks for your service. Looking forward to you see more often in our circle for Pujas.
“Paragbhai was great to work with for our recent Vidhi and Wedding. Since it was multi-cultural (I'm not Indian by my husband is), it was very important for me to have a Priest who could explain not only to me and my family but also to our guests what was going on through various parts of the ceremony which he did very well. He really understood and tailored our ceremonies to reflect that this was not a traditional Hindu ceremony and he was very patient with all the questions. He met with my in-laws first and then again with my family to explain every step. We couldn't have asked for a more modern, understanding and flexible Priest to work with. We will be using him for our future needs as well.”
I was very much stressed out because of the unexpected problem that came in my life. I didn’t know what to do. Then I contacted Navinbhai. He explained me my horoscope so well and guided me to resolve it. Within 24 hours my stress was gone, I felt relaxed. After 7 days, my problem was automatically solved which was no way possible. I’ll be much THANKFUL to Navinbhai forever. He’s very honest, sympathetic, & helpful. He’s a five star astrologer. I would highly recommend everyone to take his benefits. You’re lucky if got his help. He’s unique and awesome.
Parag officiated and performed our wedding in Michigan, and did an amazing job. My wife and her family are American and I am Indian, so finding someone who could explain the different rituals clearly and in good English was important to us. Luckily we found Parag, who was able to discuss everything with us in detail over the phone since we were planning from afar. He was flexible and good at creating a ceremony that adhered to tradition but also reflected our own values and wishes. I would highly recommend him, especially for an inter-cultural wedding like ours!
A very honest Astrologer, perfect guidance for my education. I would not completed my education without your advise.
Best astrology person I have found in my life with honesty integrity. With proven results and effects from Pujas, mantras and stones.
we were lucky to have him officiate our daughter’s wedding with Gujarati traditions. He is incredibly knowledgeable about numerous traditions and cultures and kept our barati/guest engaged the entire time. We had many guests tell us that they really enjoyed entire ceremony because of his ease of explaining the Hindu steps and his elaborate/detailed explanation. He is very jovial was easy to work during our actual ceremony and made us and the audience laugh numerous times. On a personal note, he was also extremely flexible with incorporating specific wedding rituals and appeased both our families. He was very easy, honest, reasonable to work with. If you are looking for a priest who is up to date with modern times and still understands traditions look no further. We are extremely lucky to have found Paragbhai Dave and he made our daughter’s wedding ceremony so enjoyable and event to remember forever…THANK YOU PARAGBHAI!
Hi Paragbhai, We couldn't be more happier to have had you as our priest in the wedding ceremony. You presented all the Sanskrit verses very clearly (in English where necessary) to all the guests, and they all enjoyed the ceremony. Also, you took the time to understand the meaning of each ritual and took it step by step with patience, for which we will be forever grateful. In all, the ceremony narration was simple, clear, fun, and energetic. We will definitely keep you in mind for future pujas at our place, and also heavily recommend them to others.
We have known Navinbhai Dave since last few years. He is highly knowledgeable and experienced in astrology. We often seek guidance and his reading of horoscope and solutions for our problems has been highly beneficial. Although we live in New Zealand Navinbhai has been easily approachable.
I spoke to Navin Uncle a couple of times, mostly because he came highly recommended by a very good friend of mine. I would definitely recommend him to someone else, I feel like he does these readings more for the joy and passion of it, as opposed to anything else. I spoke to him in April and he told me I would get a job, and the next month, I got a great job offer. He may come off a little harsh at first in his delivery of information, but then he goes deep into the astrological information. He is kind and means well, and I find him incredibly reliable. He had some mantras and poojas done for me, and they were legitimately done and sent me videos stating my name and picture with the pandits in India. I also purchased a stone from him, it has only been a couple months since I have been wearing it, but I feel protected. I find him very reliable and legit, and his knowledge is quite deep and good. I look forward to speaking to him again.
Thank you so much for performing engagement, and wedding ceremony of my daughter. I was feeling very nervous since my wife and I had no experience on what to expect and how to perform in different rituals during the ceremony. You explained each of the steps very clearly, and also gave us a detailed list of items required to properly perform the ceremony, which, in turn, helped us feel confident and prepared for the day. You also explained the rituals in English very precisely, therefore helping our american friends develop a better understanding of Hindu marriages. Thank you again for being our guide and priest during this memorable day.
Thank you for coming and performing the puja at our house. As always, it was awesome . My parents were also very happy and full of praise. My parents mentioned me that even in India they have never seen knowledgeable and pious priest like you. Thank you for taking out the time and doing it . Regards Dipti Goyal
Navin is a sincere person, he has a genuine eagerness to help those who are in need. His accurate readings and interpretation of horoscopes have helped during the matchmaking phase. He was able to provide sufficient information that was accurate and he is a genuine person who did not use any type of trickery to manipulate the stated facts. If you can handle brutal truth and honesty, I would say he is the go-to-person because he is an accurate astrologer, and he is very straight-forward.
Thank you very much Navinbhai for performing our wedding. I was very nervous, because I am not from India and without rehearsal how will be able to perform the wedding ceremony? You made me very comfortable during the whole ceremony. How nice and patient you are! I was very lucky that my priest is a teacher, so I was benefited with your patience and explaining skill. Now, you are our priest for our whole life and also for our friends and family.
Parag made my dream wedding come true! I am so lucky to have the youngest Hindu priest by my side. He has great attention to detail. He would tell both my family and my wife’s family all the details that go into a Hindu wedding, which is so helpful for me since I am Indian-American. He is also great at answering his phone.

Unbelievable Prediction! was all perfect. You guidance was very impressive, changed my life. Thank you very much!
Uncle ji’s guidance has helped me tremendously and is very effective. He listens carefully to the situation or question and responds by carefully looking at the horoscope to suggest mantras and remedies. He suggests getting mantras yearly as way to keep negativity down. As the mantras are being completed. You can sense a change in the room. It brings an understanding and calmness.

Thank you very much dear Paragbhai for coming all the way to Italy for this special occasion. We are so honored to have you for performing our wedding.
Parag ji does wonderful work. He always explains the meaning of the Pooja steps in different languages so kids love doing Pooja as well. I know him for 9 years and appreciate the services that he offers to community’. Best wishes.
We had an opportunity to work with Paragbhai for our daughter’s wedding! We had an excellent experience with him. He was very accommodating to our needs and wishes and performed the Pooja and Ceremony within the time we had requested, without compromising any aspect of the rituals. And was on time for every event. His knowledge of our Hindu rituals and command over Sanskrit was more than adequate. He also had a great rapport with our children’s generation and was able to explain things in English where necessary. Another aspect we appreciated was that he did not go into any unnecessary details in his explanations. His demeanor was very friendly and easy going and his presence felt very reassuring! He was also available for meetings beforehand to make sure that everything went seamlessly on the days of the events. We will be definitely using his services for future events and highly recommend him!
Our wedding officiant, Mr. Navin Dave was excellent. We hired him to officiate our wedding and perform the graha shanti, the day before the wedding. He came ahead of time, was fully prepared, executed anything we had asked of him and kept the graha shanti pooja and wedding running on time and the ceremony short, as we had requested. He was excellent at explaining to our audience the steps he was performing and the significance behind them and thereby keeping all our guests thoroughly entertained. A lot of our guests gave us feedback that Mr. Dave did a very good job and that they enjoyed the ceremony, a rarity in Indian weddings.
Paragbhai Dave was very good preist at my daughter's wedding in Mexico. He is very knowledgeable young priest did good job to my daughter Shivani's wedding
I met Mr. Dave through a friend. We went to him for his guidance to read our horoscope. He explained in great depth in regards to our current chart. He made many suggestions to help us out, and kept us updated consistently with solutions which made him very unique compared to others we have visited. I highly recommend him as he has a displays a real passion for what he does.
Pundit ji was amazing! He accommodating to our multiple schedule changes. He worked very well with us ahead of time to explain the wedding ceremony to my non-Indian husband. He was very mindful of traditions and was flexible with us. He really cares for you and does a great job. I highly recommend
I came to know Mr. Navin Dave through common friend where he was doing Pooja. With growing friendship, he looked at mine and my son 's horoscopes. He is very precise in his predictions and gives astrological explanation. He also guides with effective solutions which in most instances minimize the ill effects or prevents bad effects of stars. I regularly consult him and recommended to number of my friends. Every friend who went to him was impressed and now they always consult him. From my personal experience, I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone and you will be in for pleasant experience.
Me and Bhupen loved and liked your knowledge and wisdom towards these young generations. We believe that this is the correct way to explain them our belief. Thanks for everything.
Paragbhai did our wedding ceremony this past year and we could not be happier with how it turned out. We wanted to keep our ceremony short and sweet as we were on a tight schedule and Parag made that happen. It helped that he was fluent in Gujarati and English. Paragbhai explained very nicely that our guests knew what was going on throughout the whole ceremony and they enjoyed that it was not painfully long. Thank you very much Paragbhai for your great service!
Navin Uncle, I had so many problems with my personal life. My daughter had quit the study from medical college, she didn’t want to go back to the college. She was totally frustrated. we are very happy now and everything got on track after we did the pujas and started wearing stones. I get very good sleep because of mental peace. My personal problems are over, my daughter is back to study. I truly appreciate your help from bottom of my heart.
An enlightening experience with Navinbhai when he reads the horoscope. It’s pure science, facts and in depth analysis that revealed information that was only known to me which helps us to plan for the future knowing the strengths and weakness due to planetary effects. I recommend it for anyone who is looking to enhance their life and has an open mind to receive the insights and willing to take necessary action.
Navinbhai in a true sense is a Sanatani Hindu Priest who followed Sanatan Hindu religion in his life. Beauty of his services and himself are great. He is very knowledgeable and works according to the situation but still follows all important parts of the ceremony. We are really blessed to have him as a Priest. His blessings made me feel like blessings from God. I have not come across any such pious Brahmin family in a true sense in my entire life. whose entire family and home is following Hhindu religion in True sense. We are lucky to find. He made the ceremony so enjoyable with short descriptions of most steps. He has wonderful sense of humor and knowledge. The audience was much excited during the ceremony and he was highly appreciated by the audience. He could hold the audience performing ceremony in Fluent English in timely manner. I would highly recommend him and you’ll be lucky to have him.
Paragbhai Dave officiated the wedding for my son and daughter-in-law at San Miguel de Allende in April 2022. We were very pleased with his easy-going approach, adaptability ( we wanted to incorporate some jain ceremony steps and he did those so well along with the traditional Hindu ceremony) his patience in explaining to the bride and groom - all the steps in detail and his pleasing personality. It was wonderful to work with him through the entire process. I would highly recommend him.
Excellent Vastu pooja experience! Being the first pooja in US I was skeptical in looking for a panditji on Sulekha but came across Naveen ji and from the very beginning there was a positive vibe in his voice and communicating. The way he conducted pooja was very well received by me and my family. He explained all the verses in Hindi and English beforehand. We felt very positive after the pooja and Navin ji's expertise is worth it all.
It was an absolute pleasure to have Panditji Parag Davé as our Hindu priest our my wedding. He met with the both of us and the groom's mother and took a considerable amount of time to explain all of the steps for the wedding, both in English and Gujarati. He made himself available for a Grah Shanti a few days before the wedding with a very short notice and also made sure that the wedding day went very smoothly. We would highly recommend him! - Pratik and Susan
