The need for Shraddh Pujas in absentia could arise due to unavoidable situations like pandemic, travel, health, work related difficulties and many more. Shraddh in absentia are being offered to address these situations. Hindu sanatan dharma prescribes a set of rituals to be followed in life. Historically a large majority of Hindus have been observing these rituals religiously. Shraddha (श्राद्ध्) is a faithful offering to the departed. Conscious beings in forefathers (Read as: Atma or soul) go to higher realms of existence. We need to remember them and offer our prayers and food to them. Even as the Indian diaspora is now spread all over the world and colonised, the desire to perform basic rituals like Shraddhas, the annual funeral rites to their departed forefathers and loved ones is still very strong in the minds of devout Hindus. Sometimes the call of the duty may come as a hindrance to perform these very essential Shraddha Karmas. Now, there is a solution to perform Shraddhas online through verified Vedic scholars and Pundits. You can take up these completely in absentia.

Shraddha Karma or Shradh is performed on the day of death of the parent as per the Hindu Panchangam date. This generally referred as the ‘Annual Death Anniversary’. The yearly death anniversary has many names like Mritaanna Shraddha, Samvatsarik Shraddha or Paarvana Shraddha. In the North India, this is also called Brahman Bhoj or Brahmana Bhojanam.

Why is Shraddha Performed?

Hindu Sanatan Dharma prescribes a set of rituals to be followed in life. Shraddha Karma or Shradh Karma Puja are among these. According to ancient Hindu Shastras, men or women are indebted to three forms of debts knowns as ‘Devaruna’, ‘Rishiruna’ and ‘Pitruruna’. Amongst these ‘runas’, clearing of ‘Pitruruna’ (ancestral debt) is important because we are indebted to parents or ancestors since we get this body only through them and we enjoy all material benefits through this body. Hence, performing Shraddha is said to help us get the Ashirvaadam or benevolence of the departed Pitru Devathas.

Varshika Shraddha / Barsi Ceremony:

‘Pitruruna’ can be cleared by performing Varshika Shraddha (known as Barsi Ceremony) or yearly death ceremony which falls on the Thithi, as per the Hindu Panchangam on which the parent deceased. On that particular Chamdaramaana (lunar) ‘Thithi’, Varshik Shraddha ceremony is carried out. During this ritual, the Devatas (“VASU, RUDRA AND ADITYA”) are invoked and Pitrus are reached through them. Pitruruna ceremony and rituals carried by surviving son or sons on the ‘Shraddha Thithi’ is known as Varshika Shraddha. Carrying out Varshika shraddha in ‘Teertha Kshetras’ (holy places) has been considered highly meritorious as mentioned in Puranas. Important Teertha Kshetras are Gaya-Prayagraj, Gokarna, Hardwar, Kashi (Varanasi), Rameswaram-Sethukarai, Srirangapatna, Trimbakeshwar and many more. Important steps in Shraddh: Shraddh performed can be broadly divided into four steps. Vishwadeva Sthapana: Devatas – Vasu, Rudra, Aditya and Pitrus are invoked through Mantras with Brahmins. Through the process of consulting a professional priest and all the procedures are performed with materials to perform the ritual. Feeding of Brahmins: Food is offered to Brahmins in gratitude. Pind Daan: Food is offered to the Pitrus that has been prepared of rice, barley, cow milk, honey, ghee, sugar and many more. This is either fed to cow or offered in river or sea. Tarpan: Tarpan is offering water along with sesame seeds, barley, kusha grass and white flours. Annual Subscription Service for Shraddha Karmas: We now offer an annual subscription service to have the Varshika Shraddha and Pitru Paksha performed every year in your parents or ancestors name in your absence at any of the holy ‘Kshetras’ across India. The ritual will be performed as per ‘Vedic’ practices by one of our qualified purohits along with an offering of food and ‘dakshina’ to eligible brahmins.
