Overview
Shraddha for families in Sigra
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.
Sigra is one of the more central, modern parts of Varanasi, the city also known as Kashi, with broad roads, hotels, showrooms and residential colonies. It sits between the railway station side of the city and the old city, which makes it a common place for visitors to stay.
ॐ पितृभ्यः स्वधायिभ्यः स्वधा नमः॥

Shraddha in Sigra: FAQs
If yours is not here, ask it. A real person answers every message on WhatsApp.
Can a Pandit come to my home in Sigra for Shraddha?

For popular muhurat dates and festival seasons, it helps to enquire a week or two ahead where possible. For other dates, shorter notice is often manageable, we confirm availability on WhatsApp.
How much does Shraddha cost in Varanasi?
The cost depends on the vidhi, the number of Pandits and travel within Varanasi. Samagri is not included in the dakshina; it is at an additional cost, agreed after discussion with Pandit ji. We share a clear quote on WhatsApp after understanding your requirements, before you confirm anything.
Can I get a Hindi speaking North Indian Pandit for Shraddha in Sigra?

Shraddha is the broader ritual of honouring ancestors, which often includes pind daan, tarpan and Brahmin bhojan. Pind daan refers specifically to the offering of pinds.
