Asthi Visarjan

Duration- 1 hour

Asthi Visarjan is a sacred Hindu ritual performed after cremation, in which the mortal remains (ashes and bone fragments) of the departed soul are immersed in holy rivers or seas. This ritual symbolizes the final journey of the soul, helping it detach from the physical body and attain peace and liberation (moksha). Asthi Visarjan is usually performed on an auspicious day, following Vedic rites, under the guidance of a knowledgeable pandit.

Asthi Visarjan in Haridwar

Among the most preferred choices, as the holy River Ganga is believed to wash away all sins. Immersing ashes here is said to grant salvation and ensure peace for the departed soul.

Asthi Visarjan in Varanasi (Kashi)

Holds unmatched spiritual significance because Lord Shiva himself is believed to guide souls toward liberation in this sacred city. Performing Asthi Visarjan here is believed to free the soul from the cycle of rebirth.

Asthi Visarjan in Puri

Performed at the sacred seashore near Lord Jagannath’s abode. Immersion in the sea here symbolizes merging with the cosmic elements under divine protection.
