The 13 days after death in Hinduism form a sacred bridge between the material and spiritual worlds. These days guide the departed soul from its preta state toward becoming an honored ancestor, while helping the family move from grief to acceptance with structure and purpose.
Each day carries meaning—tarpan for nourishment, pind daan for release, shraddha for remembrance, and finally Terahvin for closure. The sequence is less about superstition and more about emotional healing, karmic purification, and reconnecting with life’s continuity through prayer, charity, and compassion.
At Swargayatraa, we simplify these ancient rituals into a clear, compassionate process. Our priests and coordinators handle every arrangement—from cremation to annadanam—ensuring authenticity, accuracy, and peace for your loved one’s final journey.
