    Overview

    Asthi Visarjan Assistance for families in Lanka

    Asthi Visarjan is the immersion of a loved one’s ashes (asthi) in a holy river. Many Hindu families bring the ashes to Varanasi to be immersed in the Ganga, as Kashi and the Ganga are traditionally regarded as especially holy for this final act of care.

    Lanka is the busy neighbourhood outside the main gate of Banaras Hindu University (BHU). Its roads are full of students, teachers, shops and eateries, and the residential colonies around it are home to many university and hospital families.

    गङ्गे च यमुने चैव गोदावरि सरस्वति।

    नर्मदे सिन्धु कावेरि जलेऽस्मिन् सन्निधिं कुरु॥

    Gaṅge ca yamune caiva godāvari sarasvati, narmade sindhu kāveri jale'smin sannidhiṁ kuru.

    O Ganga, Yamuna, Godavari, Saraswati, Narmada, Sindhu and Kaveri, be present in this water.Traditional prayer for sanctifying water

    Planning Your Puja in Lanka

    Traffic around the BHU gate is heavy for much of the day; morning slots are usually easier.
    Guest houses and rented rooms may not permit a havan, confirm before planning a fire ritual.
    A Mahamrityunjaya jaap can be done with an online sankalp if the family cannot leave the hospital.
    Assi Ghat is close by for pairing a home puja with a Ganga snan or tarpan.
    Tuesdays and Saturdays are busy near the Hanuman temple, so allow extra time on those days.
    Carry the death certificate or a copy, and identity documents for the family.
    Arrive a day early if travelling from another city.
