Overview
Antim Sanskar (Last Rites Assistance) for families in Assi Ghat
Antim Sanskar, also known as Antyeshti, is the last of the sixteen Hindu sanskars. It is performed by the family, usually the eldest son or another close relative, with a Pandit guiding each step: preparing the body, the procession, the prayers at the cremation ground and the offering of the body to Agni.
Assi Ghat sits at the southern end of Varanasi's main stretch of ghats, near where the Assi stream traditionally meets the Ganga. It is more open and relaxed than the ghats further north, and its wide steps make it a popular starting point for a morning on the river.
ॐ पितृभ्यः स्वधायिभ्यः स्वधा नमः॥
