Narayan Bali in Hindu tradition

In Hindu tradition, Narayan Bali is a rite for ancestors. The name joins Narayan, a name of Lord Vishnu, with bali, which means an offering.

It is usually described as a rite for souls who died an untimely death or whose last rites were incomplete. Nag Bali is a related rite that is sometimes done together with it.

Families approach this rite with reverence. Please read each puja page, because it states what the booking covers.
