Somnath Dhaja Online Booking Price Home Delivery Instructions

Shiva Venkateswara Sharma Jun 19, 2023 Updated Jul 6, 2026 5 min read

Yes — the Somnath Dhaja (the sacred Dhwaja / flag from Shree Somnath Mahadev temple) can be sponsored and received as prasad through the temple trust’s own official online prasad portal, somnathprasad.com, which offers home delivery across India. The Dhwaja is the flag that is ceremonially hoisted on the shikhara (spire) of the Somnath temple. After it has served its purpose atop the temple, a fresh flag is offered each time, and devotees may request that a Dhwaja be sent to their home as a blessed prasad to be kept respectfully in their home pooja area. Below is a clear, verified explanation of how the Dhaja offering works, what it costs, how delivery is handled, and the correct way to keep it — sourced from the official Shree Somnath Trust websites.

What is the Somnath Dhaja (Dhwaja)?

At Somnath — revered as the first among the twelve Jyotirlingas of Lord Shiva — a Dhwaja (flag) is hoisted on the top of the temple’s shikhara as part of the daily worship tradition. This flag is deeply auspicious to devotees, and the Shree Somnath Trust makes it available as a prasad offering. A Dhwaja that has been part of the temple ritual is treated as a sacred keepsake, and many pilgrims who cannot personally hoist a flag at Somnath choose to obtain one through the trust’s official prasad service so they can honour it at home.

Importantly, the Dhaja received as prasad is meant to be kept respectfully within your home pooja mandir. It is a devotional keepsake, not something to be re-hoisted on another temple or building.

Somnath Dhaja online booking, price and home delivery

The Shree Somnath Trust runs a dedicated official prasad portal at somnathprasad.com, which is linked directly from the trust’s main website, somnath.org. Through this portal, the Dhwaja is listed among the offered prasads, and devotees can request that it be despatched to their home address. This is the correct, official route — you do not need to rely on any third-party seller.

Where to keep itIn your home pooja mandir; it should not be re-hoisted elsewhere

The Dhwaja carries a fixed contribution amount set by the trust rather than a shopping-style price, and this figure can be revised from time to time. Because the exact amount and shipping timelines are managed on the portal itself, it is best to check the live listing on somnathprasad.com at the time you place your request rather than relying on an older figure quoted elsewhere.

How the online Dhaja request works

The process on the official prasad portal is straightforward and entirely self-service:

  • Visit the trust’s official prasad portal, somnathprasad.com (you can also reach it via the prasad links on somnath.org).
  • Locate the Dhwaja listing under the offered-prasad / Dhwaja category.
  • Register or sign in, add the Dhwaja, and provide your complete delivery address.
  • Complete the contribution online; the trust then dispatches the Dhwaja to your home, typically within about 5–6 business days.

If you are visiting Somnath in person, you can also enquire about the Dhwaja and other prasads at the temple’s prasad counter and carry it back yourself.

Why use only the official Somnath Trust channel

Several unofficial and third-party websites reference Somnath prasad, but the authentic Dhwaja and other offerings are handled directly by the Shree Somnath Trust through somnathprasad.com. Using the official portal ensures the Dhaja is genuine, that your contribution reaches the temple trust, and that delivery is handled by the trust’s own arrangement. When in doubt, start from the trust’s main site somnath.org and follow its prasad links, rather than searching for booking pages elsewhere.

Keeping the Dhaja at home the right way

Because the Dhwaja is a consecrated temple flag offered as prasad, devotees traditionally treat it with the same reverence given to any prasad from a Jyotirlinga:

  • Place it in your home pooja mandir in a clean, respectful spot.
  • Do not re-hoist it on another temple, home rooftop or flagpole — it is a keepsake, not a flag to be flown again.
  • Handle it with clean hands and keep it away from the floor or footwear.

Frequently asked questions
