A jhandi is a Hindu prayer service in which an individual gives thanks to God for a multitude of reasons. It can be to celebrate a monumental event in one's life or a yearly thanksgiving service. The person hosting the prayer service will give offerings to different Hindu gods/goddesses depending on the reason for the jhandi or the family hosting it. This is a time where one should cleanse their mind and body (especially with fasting and restraining from meat, fish, eggs, etc) and spend time with their family members in preparation for the jhandi. My week was relaxing and calm as I prepared with my family members for this special day. I hope you enjoy this video and learn a little more about my traditions and customs.
Really nice video showing the togetherness of family. I can attest to how delicious everything tasted!👍🏼💯
Hey Resh!❤
Thank you so much Reshmi! You're family always reminds me of mine. Everyone always sharing a good laugh over good food. Thank you for coming again. 💙
It's so refreshing to see young people keeping up with their religion. You are an amazing young man,don't ever change. God bless you.
Thank you so much! I have gained a huge appreciation for where I come from and the traditions of my ancestors. I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
I really enjoyed this Matthew. It is true what you said ,after doing puja you feel so different. A sense of calm and fulfillment. We try to do one at least once a year in our family. Tfs!
Yes. The lack of sleep and all of the hard work paid off. My mind, body, and spirit felt so at peace and light. It is always nice to keep these traditions up because future generations will know about where they come from.
So beautiful. God bless you. You are great young man...family oriented..religious...I have a 25 yrs. old son, ivy league educated and cannot get him to do a ghandi..Thanks for sharing. May God bless you.
Thank you so much for the kind words. My culture, heritage and family are some of the most important components of my life.
Keep doing them, lots of blessings. You’ll strive, proud of you 🙏🏽🕉👍🏽👍🏽🤗
Oh wow, may you all blessed, I admire the team work and about to 😢 now as you are doing prayers. Don’t have a perfect word to describe this bond you have with your beautiful family 🙏🏽🕉
As always I like to watch them cook all those delicious goodies!
Thank you so much!
I really enjoyed this Matthew.. thanks so much for sharing ... there’s a special warmth and contentment you feel after doing puja.
I agree. There really is and it is so peaceful! Thank you for watching and for leaving such kind words.
Wow Matthew your function is so beautiful and nice and also your family you did a great job thank you to share your video with UA-cam
Thank you! I am glad you enjoyed it!
Nice video, I always enjoyed jhandi food and sweets
Namaskar 🙏 greetings from Philadelphia USA,
Hey Mathew, I enjoyed watching Yu and yur awesome Family preparing everything, Bless 🙏 yur family.
I grew up adopted by Pakistani Muslim Family, and sad to say... But I am ex communicated from them because I left Islam after all the ISIS happened... I just no longer fealt it was right to remain in that. So bout the last 8 yr. Now I been immersing myself into HINDUISM, which I fell so deeply in love with. I am today a devotee of Lord 🙏 Shiva💖 and Maa Kali, and coming into this has been such a Beautiful replacement for me.
I heard Yu say that was yur first jhandi, but I m confused what Yu mean..
Yu never ever participated in a puja at home Yourself, or do Yu mean that was yur first jhandi at the Temple??
I have taught myself from internet and from asking the temple priest of how I should do puja myself at home, which I do often... However I never ever yet had my own puja. Done the temple, is this what Yu meant when Yu said yur first jhandi??
Happy Thursday Matthew, i use to love prayers when i was growing up in Trinidad, for the delicious food and sweets. LOL! Great video thanks for sharing.
Lol yes that is one if the best parts of prayers. Thank you for watching!
Love watching this, brings back a lot of memories...it’s nice to see everyone helping to prepare for the Jhandi. Thanks for sharing Matthew!
Thank you for watching! Indeed it does. Many families don't do this anymore. I am glad you enjoyed!
Good to hear you have your jandi Matthew! Please continue performing more jandhis thoughout your life. It was what kept Guyana from going to hell during the dark days of PNC and Burnham. Your Nanee and Aaji are probably virtual wealth of knowledge when it comes to our traditions and culture. Nice!
Thanks for sharing Matthew. Food looks delicious
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed
Mathew, I enjoyed the beautiful clips of your Jhandi. The sweets and food all look very delicious. Can you please make a video of the matai with the color in the middle and the ladoo.
Thank you for watching I am so happy you enjoyed!
Here is the colored mithai recipe: ua-cam.com/video/YigZPfQL2SY/v-deo.html
And I do not have the ladoo recipe up yet, but I will soon. So be on the lookout.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful experience with us all, Matthew! You are on the right path, surrounded by a very supportive family. May Bhagwan always bless you and fulfill all of your desires.
I loved watching this vlog! Your aunties are so pretty and very good role models in your life. 😊
Thank you so much! I am really happy that you enjoyed the video. Have a great day!
Beautiful preparation. Awesome family. Wish I was there
Thank you! I really appreciate it.
Matthew, you are a fine young man. Thank you for sharing this milestone.
Thank you! I appreciate it and I am glad you enjoyed!
Matthew it was great being a part of your very first Jandhi. It was a great pleasure to share your moment with you. I Love you LOTS!!! :) can't wait for the next... Thank you everyone for taking the time out to watch our madness but loving just being together. Family is very important! Nothing better than making food to bring everyone together and it is done with great love.
Love you too Aunty Chandra! I couldn't have done it without you and everyone else. I am excited for the next time already too 🤣🤣.
Omg bless these delicious food best food also love it feeling for it right now bless these hard working ladies and Matthew for cooking
Thank you for watching! Everything was so good thanks to the wonderful women in my life.
GREAT VIDEO ! luv the music in the begining too!
Thanks!
Hi Matthew, what a beautiful video it really reminds of my cousins in Queens and I so so miss the works they use to have as you know I am mixed so I have Christian and Hindu family and we support each other. But I have to say I was drooling throughout this video. May God continue 🙏 to bless you.
Thank you so much. Inlove doing my puja and thank God for everything I'm able to do. Thanks for watching 🙏
The malas were beautiful but next time don't use flowers that's been sprayed another color... for example you would need red flowers for hanuman baba... if you offered him one of the flowers that have been sprayed red in reality you offered him a white flower...
Very beautiful thank you for sharing with us God Blessed
Thank you for watching! I am glad you enjoyed it.
LOVE THIS VIDEO!!!!! I’m so glad you got to finally enjoy having your own big puja!
Now you understand the personal experience of having a puja! The beautiful family members doing their thing, the cooking, the shopping, the prep, and of course, GOD!!!
Congrats again on your first Puja! 😁
PS: Aunty Chitra and Chandra are my fav aunts 🤣❤️🙏🏽
Thank you Navin! And thank you for all of the advice given. I definitely do understand the excitement and the feeling of fulfillment now. As soon as my jhandi was done, I said wow I cannot wait for the next one lol. From the shopping, lack of sleep, good food, and time spent with my family, I wouldn't trade any of it. Thanks for watching bro! Hopefully you can make it to my next one.

The jandhi was amazing. You have a very beautiful family some really amazing aunties. What part of guyana are you from.
Thank you so much! My family is from Berbice.
I love watching Hindu ceremonies from all over the world . Can you show a vlog about how a Hindu Guyanese wedding is celebrated ?
And if you don’t mind my asking ., what is the story behind your name “ Mathew “ . This is generally not a Hindu name .
Yes I can do a Hindu Wedding vlog one day definitely. Matthew isn't a Hindu name lol. My parents are Christian but some of my moms sisters are Hindu so I took onto that more. That's why I am Hindu.
I wish I can attend a prayers.. for the food:-), great video thanks for sharing.. Is your Aunties Chitra and Chandra twins?
Thank you for watching! Yes they are twins lol.
Yes we are. 🤗

Here is the colored version of the mithai: ua-cam.com/video/YigZPfQL2SY/v-deo.html
Hi Matthew, very beautiful to see all of your family helping you out ...be blessed. Make me feel to eat some curry..
Thank you for watching! I appreciate it.
Is it possible to put the recipes for each other things that you cooked? I dont know how to adjust for the large portion.
Hey there! Most are on my channel in smaller portions. Some aren't but I am working on them.
Hi Matthew can you please do a curry katahar for me I love it so much
ua-cam.com/video/HEOpD7I4384/v-deo.html
Matthew im so angry watching this video reminds me of jhandi back home in guyana...Can you send me some of those goodies. Nuff love
Lol don't be angry. I hope you give some if the recipes on my channel a try 🙏🙏 Thank you for the support
I didn't see any mango curry or any peera nor eggplant curry with eddo
We don't usually make baigan and eddo or mango curry for our jhandi. We usually make gurma for dessert (sweet stewed mangoes). And we did make the pera. I showed some at the end of the video
Very beautiful bro God bless you ❤🇨🇦🇬🇾🕉
Thank you! Blessings to you!
Receipe for Roat please
ua-cam.com/video/eFGg93c7e6I/v-deo.html
Here is the recipe!
I am an early fan or yours you look more mature now I guess it's your birthday
Thank you for being a long time follower. Thanks for watching!
Im pregnant i need some seven curry
Oh my. You need to get some asap then lol. Thanks for watching!
R u fijian indian
Guyanese
Beautiful
Thank you!
too much bla bla in da beginnin
Your food doesn't look presentable very messy
I like the video of the cooking and maybe I am old fashion but I think all that should be private and sacred with just you and your family, I personally don't think that special time should be put out there,just my opinion
Thank you for watching! I think of it in a different sense, just because if these things are kept a secret then future generations won't know too much about it. And you are definitely entitled to your own opinion, hope you enjoy the future videos.
