Guidance and prayers for the immersion of ashes, including arrangements made from Canada and the United States.

Significance of this ritual

The immersion of ashes returns the body's elements to the waters and completes the last rites. Families living far from a tirtha need clear guidance rather than guesswork.

How the ritual is performed

Prayers before the visarjan, the sankalpa and tarpan on the day, and practical guidance on immersion at a permitted water body here or on sending the ashes to Kashi, Rameswaram, Triveni or the Kaveri through the proper channels.

When it is observed

After the tenth to thirteenth day rites, or later when travel and permissions allow, on a day chosen for the purpose.
