Overview

Tarpan for families in Dadar

Tarpan means ‘to satisfy’ or ‘to offer contentment’. In this rite, the performer offers water mixed with black sesame, holding kusha grass, while remembering departed family members by name. It is one of the simplest ancestral rites, yet traditionally regarded as deeply meaningful.

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
