Why Srirangapatna
Srirangapatna is an island town on the Kaveri in Mandya district, Karnataka, home to the Sri Ranganathaswamy temple — Adi Ranga, the first of the five Pancharanga kshetras on the Kaveri. It is one of South India’s best-known places for ancestral rites.
Families perform tarpan, pinda pradana, shraddha and Narayana Bali on the Kaveri banks here — at the Sangama, where the two arms of the Kaveri rejoin and the Lokapavani flows in (known locally as the Triveni Sangama), at the Paschima Vahini ghat and at Gosai Ghat. On Mahalaya Amavasya thousands of people offer tarpan here.
Your puja is performed by our pandit on these banks, as the vidhi and the day require.
About this puja
Pitru Tarpan at Srirangapatna is the til-jal, or sesame water, offering to your ancestors, made on the banks of the Kaveri. Our pandit performs it as a private puja for your family alone, naming each pitr with their relation in the sankalp. You receive the video on WhatsApp within 3–4 days.
What is Pitru Tarpan at the Kaveri?
Of all the rites for the ancestors, tarpan is the simplest and the one offered most regularly. Water with til (black sesame), barley and kusha grass is poured for the pitrs as their names and gotra are recited. At Srirangapatna this til-jal tarpan is offered for each pitr on the Kaveri banks. The sankalp, the formal resolve, includes your name and gotra and each pitr's name and relation to you. It closes with a prayer for the peace of the departed.
Why devotees book it
- Honouring each departed parent or grandparent by name, with thanks for all they gave
- Praying for peace and contentment for the pitrs, as tradition teaches
- A traditional remedy when pitru dosh has been pointed out in the kundli
- Seeking the ancestors' blessings for the family's well-being
When to book
Tarpan can be offered on each day of Pitru Paksha, on any Amavasya and above all on Mahalaya Amavasya. It is also offered on the tithi, or death anniversary, of an ancestor. After booking, our team confirms the date and the muhurat (auspicious time) with you on WhatsApp.
