The core rituals are similar to those performed elsewhere, but gain special potency here:
- Sankalpa: Taking the vow near or at the Sangam, mentioning the ancestors’ names and Gotra.
- Triveni Snan: Taking a purifying dip at the confluence is an essential prelude.
- Pind Daan: Offering Pindas (rice/barley balls with sesame, honey, etc.) representing the ancestors. Offering these at the Sangam is the central act.
- Tarpan: Offering water mixed with black sesame seeds to satisfy the Pitrus.
- Brahman Bhojan/Dakshina: Feeding or making offerings to learned Brahmins associated with the Sangam area.
- Daan: Giving charity near the Sangam is also highly meritorious.
