Pithru Thithi Pooja in Rameswaram
Pithru thithi pooja is the anniversary rite for a specific ancestor, performed in the ancestral form rather than as a general temple pooja. Families search both Pithru thithi and Pitru thithi.
What happens
The priest limits the sankalpam to the ancestor and lineage you name. It is more specific than a broad pithru pariharam, which may address a wider family obligation.
Why Rameswaram
Families who cannot perform the thithi at home, or who are already travelling, use Rameswaram because Agni Theertham is a traditional place for these offerings.
Preparation
Calculate the thithi before you message. If two relatives disagree on the date, resolve it first. The priest performs the day you confirm.
- •Message the ritual name, preferred date, and whether you will be in Rameswaram that day.
- •Share names, gotra, and ancestor details your family customarily uses for the sankalpam.
- •We confirm the location, time, and current dakshina on call or WhatsApp before the ritual.
Pricing
Featured rituals on the homepage are listed from ₹1,500–₹5,000, and the travel package from ₹1,500–₹2,200. Both vary by ritual, group size, and destinations. Confirm the current amount when you book.
