Overview

Narayan Bali for families in Katra

Narayan Bali is a specialised Vedic rite dedicated to Lord Vishnu (Narayan). It is traditionally performed for a departed family member whose final rites could not be carried out in the usual way, for example, after an untimely passing, so that the family can complete their duty with care.

Katra is one of the busiest market areas of Prayagraj, close to Allahabad University. Its shops, coaching centres and lanes of homes bring together long settled trading families, working households and students from across eastern Uttar Pradesh.

ॐ पितृभ्यः स्वधायिभ्यः स्वधा नमः॥

Shukla Yajurveda 19.36
