Do The Last Rituals For Your Loved Ones

Antyeshti is the last Sanskar according to Hinduism. According to the Dharamshastras, it is believed that the unfulfilled desires of the deceased get pacified when the last rites are performed duly without any omission.

The importance of this Sanskar is mentioned in ‘Bodhayan Pitru Medha Sutra’. It says:
“तस्यान्मातरं पितरमाचार्य पत्नीं पुत्रं शि यमन्तेवासिनं पितृव्यं मातुलं
सगोत्रमसगोत्रं वा दायमुपयच्छेद्दहनं संस्कारेण संस्कृर्वन्ति।।”

which means that when your relatives and acquaintances die, you should cremate the dead body by duly observing all the rites and rituals.
