Where exactly in Varanasi are Shradh rituals performed?

Shradh rituals, particularly Pind Daan and Tarpan, are predominantly performed on the holy Ghats along the banks of the River Ganga. Some of the most significant Ghats for these rites are:

• Pishach Mochan Kund: Especially known for rituals pacifying souls who had unnatural deaths (Tripindi Shradh).
• Manikarnika Ghat: A Mahashamsthan (great cremation ground), performing rites here holds immense significance.
• Dashashwamedh Ghat: A prominent and ancient ghat, very popular for various rituals including Shradh.
• Assi Ghat: Located at the confluence of the Ganga and Assi rivers, it’s also a favored spot.
• Harishchandra Ghat: Another major cremation ghat where rituals are performed.
• Raj Ghat: Known for accessibility.

The choice of Ghat can sometimes depend on family tradition or the specific type of Shradh being performed.
