Overview

Shraddha for families in Dadar

Shraddha takes its name from the word for faith and sincere devotion. It is the rite through which families remember departed parents, grandparents and ancestors, offering pindas, water, sesame and food with prayers for their peace. Many families observe Shraddha every year on the tithi of a loved one’s passing and during Pitru Paksha.

Dadar sits at the centre of the island city, where the Western and Central Railway lines meet. Around Shivaji Park, Dadar West has long been the heart of Marathi Mumbai, while Dadar East and the Parsi and Hindu colonies nearby have older buildings, wide roads and some of the city's best known schools.

ॐ पितृभ्यः स्वधायिभ्यः स्वधा नमः॥

Shukla Yajurveda 19.36

Fresh flowers and garlands are easy to buy at the Dadar flower market on the morning of the puja.

Ganesh Chaturthi and Tuesdays near Siddhivinayak are very busy; allow extra travel time.
