What is Online Pind Daan?
Pind Daan is one of the most important rites for honouring the departed. Family members offer pindas, small rounds made of rice or barley flour, sesame and ghee, along with water and prayers, remembering loved ones and seeking peace for their souls. It is a way for a family to express gratitude, love and continuity with those who came before.

Online Pind Daan: FAQs
If yours is not here, ask it. A real person answers every message on WhatsApp.
Can Pind Daan be done online if we cannot travel to Varanasi?
Yes. A Pandit performs the pinda offerings at a Varanasi ghat with sankalp in the names of your departed family members and your gotra, and you join by video. Many families living in other cities or abroad choose this, and some travel to Kashi later for the rite in person.
Can it be done if we live abroad?
Where the family’s tradition permits, the rite can be performed in Varanasi on your behalf, with your sankalp taken live over a video call.
How does an online puja work?
You share your name, gotra (if known), the names of family members to include and your intention. At the scheduled time, the Pandit performs the sankalp in your name and conducts the ritual while you join by video call and follow along.
Which pujas can be performed online?
Many pujas, paths and homams can be performed with an online sankalp. Rituals that fundamentally need the family on-site, such as Griha Pravesh, Bhoomi Puja, Vivah or Asthi Visarjan, are offered in person. Each puja page shows the options available.
Can I book from the USA, UK, Canada, Australia, UAE or Singapore?
Yes, you can enquire from anywhere. We schedule around your time zone where the muhurat allows, and share the details on WhatsApp.
What do I need at home for an online puja?
A quiet space, a stable internet connection and a simple setup such as a diya, incense and flowers is usually enough. The Pandit will tell you if anything specific is recommended.
