We spent the morning of Maha Shrivatri to send off a good friend’s ashes along the Ganges River in Rishikesh with the help of Abhinav and Shobhit from Namami Gange. Being a visitor and of a different faith, they both were so kind to share the details and process of the pooja, and the entire sequence and importance of the rituals that will take place before the spreading of the ashes. I highly recommend them both — they are known in the area for their work along the Ganges, and you’ll be guided throughout your spiritual journey, just like what they wonderfully did to us.
