Book Kashi Pind Daan & Tarpan
In Kashi — the city of Lord Vishwanath and the tirtha of liberation — pind daan and tarpan are offered at the sacred Ganga ghats for the peace of departed souls. Our Kashi pandits perform the shraddh vidhi with correct mantras and the sankalp in your family’s name.
How your family takes part — from anywhere
- Tell us the ritual, the holy place and the names & gotra of your family (and of the departed, for ancestral rites) on WhatsApp.
- We confirm a verified local pandit at the tirtha, an auspicious day and an all-inclusive price.
- On the day, the sankalp is taken in your name — you join by live video where connectivity allows, or we record the full ritual for you.
- Afterwards we courier the prasad and tirth-jal, with photos and the recording, to your address anywhere in the world.
The ritual, step by step
