The word Shraadh comes from the Sanskrit word "śrāddha" (श्राद्ध) meaning ‘faith’ or ‘devotion’.Shraadh is an annual ancestral ritual in Hinduism performed to pay homage and provide spiritual sustenance to deceased parents, grandparents and other family members.
The Garuda Purana and other Hindu scriptures deeply root the concept of Shraadh in the belief that there is a spiritual link between the living and the deceased. The rituals performed during Shraadh aim to assist the soul of the deceased in its journey through the afterlife. According to Hindu cosmology, the soul may traverse various realms (known as lokas) after death, and these rituals aim to ensure a smoother passage.
The Garuda Purana is one of the 18 Mahapuranas, a genre of ancient Hindu literature. It is in the form of a dialogue between Lord Vishnu and his mount, Garuda. One of the most well-known parts of the Garuda Purana is the section that deals with death, the afterlife, and the rituals surrounding them. This includes a detailed account of what happens to the soul after death, the concept of heaven and hell, and the path that the soul takes after leaving the body.
The Garuda Purana lays out specific procedures for Shraadh, explaining how the rituals are to be performed, who should perform them, and what materials should be used. The text stresses the importance of Shraadh for the deceased's soul's well-being and outlines how neglecting to perform these rituals can adversely affect both the departed soul and their living relatives. These ancestral rites, according to the text, can also have an impact on one's karma. Performance of Shraadh: Shraadh is traditionally performed by the eldest living male member of a family, usually the son or grandson of the deceased. In cases where the men are absent, other relatives may conduct the rituals. The presence of a knowledgeable priest is considered essential; he chants mantras and guides the ceremony, as well as the offerings to the departed soul.
