    Overview

    Tripindi Shraddha for families in Assi Ghat

    Tripindi Shraddha is a specialised ancestral rite in which three pindas are offered, traditionally for ancestors of past generations whose Shraddha may not have been performed regularly, or whose rites the family is unsure about. It is described in traditional texts and practised in several communities.

    Assi Ghat sits at the southern end of Varanasi's main stretch of ghats, near where the Assi stream traditionally meets the Ganga. It is more open and relaxed than the ghats further north, and its wide steps make it a popular starting point for a morning on the river.

    ॐ पितृभ्यः स्वधायिभ्यः स्वधा नमः॥

    Oṁ pitṛbhyaḥ svadhāyibhyaḥ svadhā namaḥ.

    Planning Your Puja in Assi Ghat

    Mornings are the calmest time; aim to arrive around sunrise if your ritual includes the Ganga.
    Assi is reachable by road, which makes it easier for elderly family members than ghats deep in the old city.
    Boats can be hired at the ghat for travelling along the river to other ghats.
    Crowds increase significantly around Dev Deepawali, Sawan and major snan days, so book accommodation and Pandits early.
    Check with your guest house before planning a havan indoors or on the terrace.
    Arrive in Varanasi a day early so you can start in the morning.
    Bring your gotra and whatever ancestor names you know.
