How long does the Mahamrityunjay Jaap typically take to complete?

The duration depends on the scale of the Jaap. A single round of 108 mantras takes about 15 to 20 minutes. An 11,000-chant session, often done in one sitting by a group of priests, lasts roughly 3 to 4 hours. The full 1.25 lakh (125,000) recitation Jaap requires 5 pandits chanting together and spans multiple days — typically 5 to 7 days when 1,000 mantras are chanted per priest per session. Your pandit will set the exact schedule based on the Sankalp and muhurat.
