Overview

Asthi Visarjan Assistance for families in Rathyatra

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.

Rathyatra is one of the best-known crossings in central Varanasi, linking Sigra, Mahmoorganj and the roads towards the south of the city. Its name comes from the traditional Rath Yatra fair of Lord Jagannath held in the area each year.

गङ्गे च यमुने चैव गोदावरि सरस्वति।

नर्मदे सिन्धु कावेरि जलेऽस्मिन् सन्निधिं कुरु॥

Traditional prayer for sanctifying water

Planning Your Puja in Rathyatra

The crossing is congested for much of the day; early-morning slots are easiest.
During the Rath Yatra fair, expect road diversions and heavy crowds nearby.
Commercial buildings may restrict open flames, so check before a havan.
Parking can be limited near the crossing; arrange a drop-off point for the Pandit.
Carry the death certificate or a copy, and identity documents for the family.
Arrive a day early if travelling from another city.
