What is Sathabhishekam?

The ceremony celebrating a person’s 80th birthday, traditionally when they have seen a thousand full moons, with a homam, abhishekam and blessings from the family.

Some South Indian families travel to Varanasi to mark this rare milestone in Kashi, often with a Ganga snan and darshan.
