Ayodhya

What is Shraddha?

The rite of remembering and honouring departed parents and ancestors with offerings, prayers and food, performed with faith (shraddha) on their tithi or in Pitru Paksha.

Families in Ayodhya book Shraddha for on the death anniversary (tithi) of the departed, as per the hindu calendar, and we arrange a Pandit who knows the full vidhi.

Shraddha in Ayodhya: Local Traditions

Ayodhya, the birthplace of Shri Ram on the banks of the Saryu, has seen a surge of pilgrims since the Ram Janmabhoomi Mandir opened in 2024. Hanuman Garhi, Kanak Bhawan and the Nageshwarnath Mandir are part of every pilgrim's round, and the city's ghats host Mundan, Saryu Pujan and ancestral rites every day.

Ayodhya is the home ground of the Saryupareen Brahmins, named after the land beyond the Saryu, and many purohit families here are Saryupareen. Worship is shaped by the Ramanandi Vaishnav tradition, with Ramcharitmanas recitation, Sundarkand and Akhand Ramayan Path central to both temple and household rites.

Booking Shraddha in Ayodhya: What to Know

  • Pandits in Ayodhya are commonly called Pandit ji, Panda, Tirth Purohit and Pujari. Ask for whichever you are used to, and tell us your family's tradition (Ramanandi Vaishnav, Saryupareen and Awadhi North Indian) so the vidhi matches.
  • Explanation can be in Hindi and Awadhi; the mantras stay in Sanskrit.
  • Demand for Pandits in Ayodhya rises around Ram Navami, Deepotsav (Diwali), Sawan Jhula Mela and Kartik Purnima, so book early if your date falls near these.
