Overview

Antim Sanskar (Last Rites Assistance) for families in Godowlia

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.

Godowlia is the crowded crossroads at the heart of old Varanasi. From here, the road leads down to Dashashwamedh Ghat, and the lanes branch out towards Kashi Vishwanath and the old city's markets, temples and homes.

ॐ पितृभ्यः स्वधायिभ्यः स्वधा नमः॥

Shukla Yajurveda 19.36

Planning Your Puja in Godowlia

Expect to walk the last stretch, vehicles are often stopped short of the crossing.
Samagri is not included in the dakshina; it is at an additional cost, agreed after discussion with Pandit ji.
Sawan Mondays, Maha Shivratri and Dev Deepawali bring very heavy crowds and road restrictions.
Old guest houses may have steep stairs; plan for elderly relatives accordingly.
Early mornings are the calmest time for moving through the lanes.
