Bṛhaspati, also known as Guru or Jupiter in Vedic astrology, is the celestial teacher of the gods and the embodiment of wisdom, dharma, and spiritual prosperity. Reciting the 108 names of Bṛhaspati is a sacred practice that invokes his blessings for clarity, knowledge, and ethical strength. These names honor his many aspects—as the guide of truth, protector of righteousness, and granter of divine grace—making this a powerful devotional tool for seekers, students, teachers, and spiritual aspirants.
Each name in this aṣṭottaraśata nāmāvalī (list of 108 names) reveals a unique facet of Bṛhaspati’s nature—from his cosmic brilliance to his compassionate guidance. Chanting these names is especially beneficial during Guru Mahadasha, Jupiter transits, or on Thursdays (Guruvāra). Whether for astrological remedies or heartfelt devotion, this practice helps align the soul with higher knowledge and the light of inner guidance.
