A verse to carry through the day

सत्त्वानुरूपा सर्वस्य श्रद्धा भवति भारत।श्रद्धामयोऽयं पुरुषो यो यच्छ्रद्धः स एव सः।।17.3।।

Your Complete Hindu Companion

Siraat is a free, privacy-respecting companion for daily Hindu practice. Whether you keep the morning sandhya at home, read a chapter of the Bhagavad Gita on your commute, or count japa before bed, Siraat brings every essential together so you can focus on your sadhana.

The daily Panchang is computed for your exact location — tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana, sunrise and sunset, along with Rahu Kaal and the day's auspicious windows. The Gita reader presents each verse in Devanagari with transliteration and a faithful English translation, and the festival calendar keeps Ekadashi, Navratri and every major utsav in view before they arrive.

Beyond the essentials, Siraat offers a japa mala with goals and streaks, stotras and aartis with meaning — from the Hanuman Chalisa to the Shiva Tandava Stotram — a curated guide to India's most sacred temples, and stories from the Puranas told simply for every generation. Every feature is built with care, so your practice — not the app — stays at the centre.
