    Terahvi and Vaikunta Samaradhane in Bangalore

    The thirteenth day rites mark the end of the formal mourning period. North Indian families call it Terahvi, Kannada families Vaikunta Samaradhane, Telugu families Pedda Karma and Tamil families Subha Sweekaram. It usually follows the sapindikarana, in which the departed is joined with the ancestors.

    What is Terahvi?

    The rites of the thirteenth day after a death, which traditionally complete the period of mourning with prayers, a havan, pind daan and a meal offered to Brahmins and relatives.

    A Pandit performs the rites, a havan where your tradition includes it, and guides the meal offered to Brahmins and relatives.

    Procedure, samagri & what's included

    ॐ पितृभ्यः स्वधायिभ्यः स्वधा नमः॥

    Oṁ pitṛbhyaḥ svadhāyibhyaḥ svadhā namaḥ.

    Salutations and offerings to the ancestors, who receive the offering of svadha.Shukla Yajurveda 19.36

    Why Families Choose Bangalore for Terahvi

    Families in Bangalore often host these rites in a hall because apartments cannot hold the gathering. Some halls in the city are used specifically for post death rites and meals; others do not allow them, so it is worth asking.

    Because the city brings many traditions together, a Pandit who follows your family's vidhi for the tenth to thirteenth days is important for the elders.
